I Will Be the 1st to Change

Since ‘49 we’ve been on a mission –
We got mentors and ventors and OH – we got vision!
We’ve changed jobs, and addresses - sometimes even our man,
We change whatever we darn well please, ‘cause we WOMAN & WE CAN!

In the summer of ’04 – well, my warranty expired –
Some of my parts malfunctioned – or perhaps they early retired.
Within 30 minutes of recovering - ‘Instant CHANGE’ I begot -
Complete with some flashes and maaan – it got hot!
I had entered a world of another change - I do declare,
I just had no idea it’d be so – different ... over there …..

Now, women we’re notorious for changing our mind,
It’s our prerogative – our birth right - since the beginning of time.
 
I can change clothes 3 times before I ever leave my house,
This has become quite the norm for poor Jack – he’s my spouse.
He seems to be ok with it and he takes it in stride –
For he’s adapted to my changes – to stay on my good side.
And hair color – oh mercy – let’s not even go there,
I’m a natural something – and I look good so who cares!

Rearranging the furniture and reorg’ing my stuff,
Is something I do often, but not often enough.

And my likes and dislikes are not what they once were,
I’m less tolerant I admit and my eyes are a blur.
A few pounds and laugh lines are not a disgrace –
Enjoying life with its changes keeps a smile on your face.

And life as we know it would be boring at best,
If we weren’t at all different or set apart from the rest.
Look around at your neighbor – it’s pretty obvious isn’t it?
Our differences are our strengths – I wouldn’t change that a bit!
Now some might feel differently about their neighbor and I say ….
Not here – not you – surely none of us feel that way …….

But one thing is for certain – both for me and for you,
I’ll forever be changing and so my friends will you.
