    There are a lot of old men here. Don't say blow, or final. We get shaky very easily.

    And then we blow our finals.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    "There are a lot of old men here."
    Old AM Gangstas too and speaking of which I have a recording of some AM Geezer Rock recorded on 3885 written and performed by The Huz Man Steve WB3HUZ. Here are the lyrics only because the forum software won't accept the large file size. (:-<)

    Since I blew my final
    I've found a new place to dwell
    Down at the end of Yellowy Street
    At Piss Weak Hotel

    Now I'm so piss weak
    Now I'm so PISS WEAK
    Now I'm so piss weak I could die

    Although the band is crowded
    I can still find some space
    But's what's the use of tryin'
    You can't hear me any place

    reprise

    Well the neighbors used to be callin'
    'Bout TVI from my shack
    But now they stop complainin'
    'Cause RF's what I lack

    reprise
    instrumental interlude

    Well I used to get those pink slips
    From the FCC
    But no more violations
    Since I'm running QRP

    reprise

    So if you blow your final
    Detect a burnin' smell
    Just QSY down frequency
    To Piss Weak Hotel

    And you'll be so piss weak
    You'll be so PISS WEAK
    You'll be so piss weak you could die
