I've Outlived Elvis

Holy cow
I’m 45
Am I the oldest
Man alive?

I’ve outlived Elvis
Yeah, that’s cool
I’ve not yet died
On a toilet stool

I’ve outlived Lennon
So I’m told
I always thought
He seemed so old

I’ve outlived Tupac
Sorry, buster
Bruce Lee, Sam Cooke,
General Custer

Karen Carpenter
Marilyn Monroe
Mama Cass Elliot
Anna Nicole

Clemente, Roberto
Gehrig, Lou
Kennedy, John F. Junior—
True!

Buddy Holly?
He was nice
But by my age
He’d been dead twice

John Belushi
Malcolm X
Crocodile Hunter
(Stingray hex?)

Bobby Darin!
Princess Di!
Jesus Christ!
How old am I?

Ritchie Valens
And James Dean
Combined would still
Not reach my mean

They made their marks
But don’t forget
They’re all quite dead
And I’m not yet

Getting old?
Yeah, it’s a pain
But still beats
Being Kurt Cobain
