My hair is pink and black ,
What do you make of that!
You may think I am a prat
I even bought a Trilby hat!
I just suddenly felt really edgy
It was when I hit sixty
I didn’t want to be a veggie
I needed to be nifty !!
So what was I to do
I needed to make my mark
No I did not want a tattoo
Still I wanted something to make me spark!
Today while out shopping
I was asked why have you gone black and pink
Is it because I can, I’m not out just to be shocking
No, I thought, for once in my life I want to be show stopping.
Is it because I am older that suddenly I have become bolder
I really do not know I just wanted my hair to glow
I am sick of never being seen, I am here watch me smolder.
I just want to live, we make our fates I know.

That’s not me in the picture but the hairstyle is almost the same and I have gone pink and black. So for now there is no turning back.
Oh! and will you think me naughty if tell you my oldest son, tomorrow will be forty!
