Bad Tattoo     
D                                             E    
The war with age wages on, there's always seems to be a new trick    
C                                                        D    
Moms and dads want to feel younger, the babies want to leave the nest    
D                                                       E    
The fountain of youth it all ran dry, it vanished on the hopes and dreams    
C                                              D    
Now crescent moons and butterflies will do, hidden in some little crease         
F                                   C                 G    
I don't want to look anymore - at your bad tattoo    
F                                   C                        G    
Ain't there something else you could do - than that bad tattoo?    
F                                  C                  G    
Should I run out and get myself - a bad tattoo?    
F                                  C                       G    
Should I stare or look away at you bad tattoo?         
I know that its art, some fine ones at that, I take it all in stride    
There's people that fit, from where I sit, they know how to carry the flag    
But when I go down to the swimming hole, it seems to be a whole different  story    
There's hideous sayings, symbols and flames is that just a splatter of oil?         
Chorus         
When you get it done, is it really that much fun, must you wear your skin  like a Prada?    
We all love our moms, our babies and dogs, is it better on your arm or your  neck?     
Looking ahead, it can now be said, regret will certainly be followed    
By some young dude who figures how to do, remove that yo-yo mama!
