Long Time Passing

Looking in the mirror shows a ...
Long time's been passing;
Someone's looking back at me
(Kinda looks like Mom;)
Looking in the mirror: guess
the lighting must be terrible!
I still feel 25
But can't see signs when I drive.  

Where has all the firmness gone
Long time passing;
Where has all the firmness gone
Long time ago;
Where has all the firmness gone:
Gone to crows feet everyone;
We'd better moisturize
And hatch a plan to downsize.

Where have all the noses gone
Long time passing;
Where have all the noses gone
Long time ago;
Where have all the noses gone
Gone to gravity everyone;
A witches' nose is there
Which seems completely unfair.

Where have all the jawlines gone
Long time passing;
Where have all the jawlines gone
Long time ago;
Where have all the jawlines gone
Gone to neck fat everyone:
It was there yesterday:
The jowls are just in the way.

Where have all the hairs come from
Long time passing;
Where have all the hairs come from
Long time ago;
Where have all the hairs come from
Lips and chins and everywhere:
They pop up overnight
And hard to see in the light.

Where have all my glasses gone
Long time passing;
Where have all my glasses gone
Long time ago;
Where have all my glasses gone
I can't see without them now
When will I ever learn?
One pair in every room...
