I've been living underneath his thumb.
But I don't feel so free, I don't even feel like me, now that there's no race left to run.
Yes, I'm holding down my old man now.
I guess that means I kicked his ass.
But just cause you survived, that don't mean you feel alive, and [Em] your demise will come [E] to pass.
Nobody's sure exactly why, but everybody's got to die.
Yes, it comes as quite a blow, knowing you got to go and the world [B] is gonna [E] pass you by.
Hey, I'm holding down my old man now, trying to keep it in context.
Not only older than my old man ever was, but I'm guilty I've outlived my ex.
Not only older than my old man ever was, but I'm guilty I've [B] outlived my
[E] ex.
Well, that's a cheery little number.
Thank you for that, Loudon.
Loudon Wainwright III, live on Soundcheck.
I think I'll just go slip my wrists now.
Older than my old man.
Don't do that, John.
Come on, we love you.
