Lyrics

Why did he look at her that way? Why did he look at her that way? Must be my imagination She's a lovely, blooming flower He's just a sprout Impossible! She's a lovely, blooming flower He's all worn out Impossible! Just a fledgling in the nest Just a man who needs a rest He's a beamish boy at best Poor old fellow He's a child and loves a test He's too young to pass Impassible! He has asthma, gout, a wife, lombago and gas Irascible! Romping in the nursery He looks tired Son, sit on your father's knee Father, you can lean on me Him? Impossible! But why did she wave at him that way? Why did she wave at him that way? Could there be an explanation? Women often want a father- She may want mine It's possible He's a handsome lad of twenty I'm 39 It's possible Older men know so much more In a way I'm 44 Next to him I'd seem a bore All right, 50 Then again he is my father I ought to trust - Impossible! Then again, with love at my age Sometimes it's just Impossible! With a girl I'm ill at ease I don't feel well Sir, about those birds and bees - Son, a glass of water, please The situation's fraught Fraughter than I thought With horrible Impossible Possibilities!
