Diane, Diane, Once Double Sharp

Murky, flouncy, seen much better
Two score and ten sure starts to wear
I swear Lady Di has lost her feathers
she flying low, look out beware

from gucci shades to oblong tri-focals
she’s hearing voices, but no one is speaking
at first glance you’d think that she is loco
It’s been awhile since she was peaking

Diane, Diane, so decrepit, so frail
what ever happened to your bunny tail
Diane, Diane, once double sharp
a smiley target, now way off the mark

the tip of your cane is loaded with snuff
the ambulette, your home from home
there'll come a time, when enough is enough
ya know what I mean
it's so sad to bemoan
but it’s kinda like
When ya get to the bottom
of an ice cream cone?

in the blink of a stare,
in the whisper of trees
Oh, the thinning of hairs
graying, oh they're graying, constantly

Diane, Diane, so decrepit. so frail
whatever happened to your bunny tail
Diane, Diane, once double sharp
once a smiley target, now way off the mark

Diane Diane… how she used to do the conga
Diane, Diane, she’s double sharp no longer….
