Old People - John Hiatt

Old people are pushy

They don’t have much time

They’ll shove you at the coffee shop

Cut ahead in the buffet line

They’ll buy two for a dollar and fifty

Then they’ll argue with the checkout girl

They’ve lived so much behind them

They’re tryin' to slow down this god damn world

Old people are pushy

Well, they’re not mushy

Old people are pushy cause life ain’t cushy

Old people are pushy

They’ll drive how they want to drive

And go as slow as they want to

They don’t care who stays alive

And they’ll kiss that little grand baby

Up and down the back and all around the front

They don’t care what you think of them

That baby has got something that they want

Old people are pushy

Well, they’re not mushy

Old people are pushy cause life ain’t cushy

(Old people are pushy, they aren’t mushy)

(Old people are pushy cause life ain’t cushy)

Old people are pushy, cause you don’t know how they feel

And when you pretend you do

Well, they know it’s not real

Pretty soon it’s gonna be all over

Good enough reason not to let you pass

They seem like sweet, little old people

But they are not about to kiss your ass

Old people are pushy, well they’re not mushy

Old people are pushy cause life ain’t cushy

Old people are pushy, (old people are pushy)

Old people are pushy, (old people are pushy)

Old people are pushy, (old people are pushy)

Cause life ain’t cushy

Old people are pushy

Old people are pushy

Old people are pushy

Cause life ain’t cushy
