I Know a Song For That

It twists a knife into my back to see life knock you flat.
It makes me want to tell you I know a song for that,
But the knife that twists when I see you in a fix
Twists again: that song I grew up with came out when you were six.

You and I can't keep time, were born out of step,
With only timeless commonalities left.
Such is the life for a harmless old perve
Whose weakling restraint is a match for his nerve.
