[Verse 1]
I'm not the wreck of the Hesperus
Feel more like the Wall of China
Getting old as Methuselah
Feel tall as the Eiffel Tower
[Verse 2]
I'm not a power of attorney
But I can rock as good as Gibraltar
Ain't no more no spring chicken
Been plucked but I'm still kicking
(But it's alright, it's alright)
[Bridge 1]
Poison penmen sneak, have no nerve to speak
Make up lies then they leak them out
Behind a pseudonym, the rottenness in them
Reaching out trying to touch me
[Verse 3]
Met some Oscars and Tonys
I slipped on a pavement oyster
Met a snake climbing ladders
Got out of the line of fire
(But it's alright)
I'm not the wreck of the Hesperus
Feel more like the Wall of China
Getting old as Methuselah
Feel tall as the Eiffel Tower
[Verse 2]

But I can rock as good as Gibraltar
Ain't no more no spring chicken
Been plucked but I'm still kicking
(But it's alright, it's alright)
