Dignified And Old
My telephone never rings
She'd never call me
I hate myself today
But I can see through this bitterness and sadness
And so I won't die now
Someday I think I'll be dignified and old

Well my friends say I deceive myself
That I contradict myself
And I can't say if they're right
But I'm not ashamed
Oh I can take a challenge
So I won't die
Someday I'll be dignified and old
I say hey kids
(Hey kids)
I said hey kids
(Hey kids)
I say someday we'll be dignified and old
That's right
I said some day we'll be dignified
(Hey kids, Hey kids)
Someday we'll be dignified
(Hey kids, Hey kids)
Someday we could be dignified and old together

Well now
Look at the mountain
My girl and I used to stand on the mountain
And the sun shines, she's dead and I cry
But I can see through the death and sadness
And so I won't die now
Someday I wanna be dignified and old

Well now
See the desert
I sit all alone in the desert
And no girl understands me
But I can see through this bleakness and gray and sadness
So I won't die now
Someday I'll be dignified and old
I say, hey you, don't die now
Someday we'll be dignified and old together
