Some Grannies just don't know when to hang up their blades.
lyrics
Well, roll granny, roll, granny skate on by…..
Well, my Granny’s got an old pair of roller blades.
She got ‘em long before I was born.
They look so funky; they’re from days gone by.
So beat-up faded, retro, and worn.
Roll, granny, Roll, granny, skate on by,
Look at my granny go.
With pads on her knees and her elbows and wrists,
so she doesn’t have to go too slow.
Granny, granny please be careful, yeah.
Granny, granny please don’t trip.
Your bones ain’t as young as they used to be:
We wouldn’t want you breakin’ your hip.
Roll, granny, Roll, granny, skate on by,
Look at my granny go.
With pads on her knees and her elbows and wrists,
so she doesn’t have to go too slow.
All the other grannies bakin’ cookies all day;
All the other grannies like to knit.
My granny gets up on her roller blades.
She says she isn’t ever gonna quit.
Roll, granny, Roll, granny, skate on by,
Look at my granny go.
With pads on her knees and her elbows and wrists,
so she doesn’t have to go too slow.
Those relics need to be in a museum, yeah,
The plastic’s stiff and crumbling like dirt.
One day her boot blew up and her foot popped out,
and she took a spill and shredded her shirt.
Roll, granny, Roll, granny, skate on by,
Look at my granny go.
With pads on her knees and her elbows and wrists,
so she doesn’t have to go too slow.
Granny maybe you should heed the warning sign,
Maybe stop behavin’ so insane.
“Hell, no! with this premium duct tape I got,
I’ll patch ‘em up and make ‘em right as rain.”
Roll, granny, Roll, granny, skate on by,
Look at my granny go.
With pads on her knees and her elbows and wrists,
so she doesn’t have to go too slow.
so she doesn’t have to go too slow.
