Too Old Lyrics


Barenaked Ladies Too Old

Way too old
Way too old

From your gilded glass house you're hurling rocks
You wanna see me shamed, displayed in stocks
What you fail to see, you don't scare me a bit
'Cause I'm too old for this shit
(Way too old)

It's just a little white lie from a little white guy
And it never really made much sense
Put a little more time into meter and rhyme
Put the Eggman on that fence
And Humpty's gonna fall
(Fall down)
Humpty's gonna fall
(Break your crown)

Keep your head on a swivel, watch what you say
The devil you don't know wants to see you pay
What was funny one time is a crime today
And it never goes away

This life can be rеally weird for me
For my children and my wifе
Sticks and stones used to break my bones
But now words can end my life

'Cause everything's a bomb
Everything's a bomb

There's no end in sight as we fight for right
'Til we fill up all the jails
When you're swinging your hammer, slinging your grammar
Everybody looks like nails

The hammer's gonna fall
Your hammer's gonna fall
From your gilded glass house you're hurling rocks
You wanna see me shamed, displayed in stocks
What you fail to see, you don't scare me a bit
'Cause I'm too old for this shit
(Way too old)
Way too old for this shit
(Way too old)
