[Verse 1]
You ask an old man's advice son
Well, here's a reasonable place to start
Never pass a bathroom chance
Never trust a fart
Never look for Friday's kiss
With Thursday's broken heart
Pay attention, son
'Cause it's all about love

[Verse 2]
See, the nurses treat me kindly here
As long as I behave
Though I've got on hand on my walker
And one foot in the grave
But I've got this sliver of memory
And these cataract-covered eyes
And I can see this much
It's all about love

[Bridge]
So you'd better go romance her
Before she hauls off and flies to France, sir
Or up and dies of cancer
And it's no longer your choice to make
[Verse 3]
You see, we're living in this world
That just don't give a damn
They'd just as soon kill each other
For being different sons of Abraham
So go set a good example boy
'Cause common sense is on the lam
Pay attention, son
'Cause this is all about love

[Piano Solo]

[Bridge]
So you'd better go romance her
Before she hauls off and flies to France, sir
Or up and dies of cancer
And it's no longer your choice to make

[Verse 4]
'Cause before you leave this planet
You're bound to get your feelings hurt
They'll misspell your name in granite
When they conscript you to the dirt
So don't let her walk away boy
Give a little tug on her skirt
'Cause when it comes down to it
It's all about love
When it comes down to it all
It's all about love
