We popped our pills

Donned our sweats

Drove to the mall

To count our steps

(We’re counting our steps!)

(One, two, three, four, let’s boogie!)

We’re active adulting

We’re proud Baby Boomers

We’re pickleballing

We’re CAT-scanning for tumors

We’re active adulting

We’re streaming our movies

We’re riding our E-bikes

We’re still feeling groovy

We’re active adulting

All systems are go

To postpone the finale

Of our one-act show

Good things are resulting

From our active adulting

We’re active adulting

We float on pontoons

We vote in elections

We fly to Cancun

We’re active adulting

We keep moving or die

We once searched for meaning

Now we don’t even try

We’re active adulting

We’re setting new goals

We’re folding the laundry

We’re playing nine holes

We’re active adulting

All systems are go

To postpone the finale

Of our one-act show

Good things are resulting

From our active adulting

We went to Woodstock

We saw the times a’changing

Some of us dropped acid

‘Cause our minds needed re-arranging

Some guys dodged the draft

Free love was in the air

Some of us protested

Some of us didn’t care

Some of us died young

Some of our choices were regrettable

But now we’re doing what we can

To postpone the inevitable

We’re active adulting

We have no regrets

We’re busy doing stuff

We’ll soon forget

We’re active adulting

We just booked a cruise

We’re injecting Ozempic

Got more pounds left to lose

We’re active adulting

Our bucket lists are still long

We don’t believe in heaven

But we hope that we’re wrong

We’re active adulting

All systems are go

To postpone the finale

Of our one-act show

Good things are resulting

From our active adulting

Good things are resulting

From our active adulting
