I went to the doctor guess what she said
She said being in love is bad for your head
C’mon doc now how can that be
When I was young love was everything
She said listen jackass I have a degree
Love goes to hell when you’re old like me
Because everything’s better with a bottle of youth
Everything’s better with a bottle of youth
Three old players brought their amps and gear
And played us the chords from yesteryear
The notes were there, they played the same songs
But it seemed a little different with the amps turned on
The sound guy shrugged and turned away
He said it all goes to hell when they age on stage
Because everything’s better with a bottle of youth
Everything’s better with a bottle of youth
And it’s hard to deny the liquor of life
Can be the taste of youth when the bottle runs dry
[Mystery Section! Changes with each performance. Perhaps something witty, topical or poignant.]
And unless you’re the oldest person on earth,
You’re always younger than someone else
And who says youth is wasted on the young,
I've got a bootleg bottle now to share with someone
Because everything’s better with a bottle of youth
Everything’s better with a bottle of youth
It’s hard to deny the liquor of life
Can be the taste of youth when the bottle seems dry
And everybody has a little bottle of youth
