The Here & the Now

The strangest story ever told Was how I got to be this old At the close of World War II My folks did the deed that the young folks do In ’46, out I came This world would never be the same! I don’t know why, I’m not sure how I wound up here, in the here and the now (He don’t know why, he’s not sure how He wound up here, in the here and the now) In the 1950s, I was just a kid Did all the kid stuff all you people did I rode a bike, I threw a ball Childhood, yeah, I got through it all The '60s came, I got my zits The girls were scary and the parents the pits I don’t know why, I’m not sure how I made it here, to the here and the now (He don’t know why, he’s not sure how He made it here, to the here and the now) In the '70s, I made it big Skunk time, fame, and well, few dig I took a wife, we had some kids Screwed that up and went on the skits In the '80s I started me a brand new life Had another kid, I took another wife I don’t know why, I’m not sure how I got here, to the here and the now (He don’t know why, he’s not sure how He got here, to the here and the now) In the 1990s, there I went again Made me a few more female friends That sure enough from heaven was sent Yet another wife, another blessed event It’s the 21st century and I’m down-right old My seat’s spinning, my loins are cold It all makes sense, the why and the how Soon I’ll be out of here, the here and the now (It all makes sense, the why and the how) I’ll be out of here, that’s (the here and the now)
