Jim, yes, that's the song, All Used Up: glad you found it. The un-named one I mentioned that Iain Mackintosh used to sing is called "Run the Film Backwards" and is also here on YouTube: Run the Film Backwards And here is: "Pleasantly Pleased to be Sixty" by Ian McCalman I am pleasantly pleased to be sixty Astounded that I've lived so long I had a great time till I reached fifty-nine I thought that was it, but I'm wrong It's not at all bad to be sixty And frankly I'm doing OK Apart from the sight in my mirror at night There are no other signs of decay Delighted to wake up each day I accept all the gifts l I'm given My heating, my bus pass and all I really don't care, but if it is there I'll take it no matter how small I can be just as ill as I want to And Google my symptoms with glee I can do a sore back or a mild heart attack Or die, if I want to, for free It's my job to annoy younger people Like, "How old do you think I am?" They tell me I'm mad and I tell them they're bad But frankly I don't give a damn And I never drive above 30 No matter the limits or signs It's amazing how slow my Toyota can go With an angry Mercedes behind Sometimes it's cruel to be kind I am pleasantly pleased to be sixty I'm far from the end of the line There's so much to do and there's so much to do And I'll do it, 'cause I have the time It's not at all bad being sixty But one thing is bothering me My memory's gone and I can't finish songs..................
