Dazed and confused? Not me. I’m just Lost in the Cheese Aisle.

THE LOVE SONG OF J. ALFRED E. NEUMAN



I grow old... I grow old... I shall wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled.

Shall I wipe my bare behind? Do I dare to eat a peach?
I shall wear white flannel trousers, and walk upon the beach.
I have heard the mermaids singing, each to each.

I do not think that they will sing to me.
But I do not care:
What, Me Worry?

[apologies to T. S. Eliot]
