A Well Known Fact

Women, you see, are different from men
They look marvelous when they're young
But then, when a woman achieves her matron station
There begins a certain process of - well
Deterioration
Now, just a minute, let me finish

It's a well known fact
That a man is more attractive
The older that he grows

He's like a late October rose
He's noticed everywhere he goes
It's the strangest thing
But a man is more distinguished
As time starts sliding by
Although I really don't know why
I couldn't change it if I tried

Unfortunate, maybe
But changeable, it's not
Men of forty go to town
Women go to pot

It's a well known fact
That a man is more attractive
With each passing year
He gets more and more attractive
And the girls react
It's a well known fact

When a man is under twenty-one
He is not worth a damn
He thinks that he's a tiger, but
He's really just a lamb

He growls, he roars
He wears his trousers tight
But he's like that no-good hound of ours
All bark, no bite

When a man is under thirty-one
He's like domestic beer
He has a certain body
But he doesn't have it here

He wheels, he deals
He doesn't spare expense
But he's like the national budget
All bills, no sense

But when a man is forty-one
He's entering his prime
Delightfully witty
Still he's wise
For he stood the test of time

It's a well known fact
That a man is more attractive
With each passing year
He gets more and more attractive
And the girls react
It's a well known fact
