The crimes of time

Youth doesn't pay the bills
Your dreams get weighed down
By the hollowness of wallets
After the ring of cash tills

Beauty won't keep you with me
As my hairs wilt to grey
As my veins start to pop
Love never stays free

The kids need their tutoring
The lawn needs their watering
The house, it needs upgrading
What I'm simply saying
Is that bills need paying
