Time to Take the Keys Away

My family had to do it, and yes, it weren’t no fun

When Dad’s truck rolled in a ditch again

Something had to be done

We didn’t wait for a bigger crash

Or wish the thing away

Dad didn’t want to give up driving

But we made him anyway

Now Uncle Joe’s running for president

And we all saw the debate-car-crash

Spinners say it was just a bad night

But that’s just balderdash

That’s not the way that aging works

It only gets worse with time

For 90 minutes Joe couldn’t string together a coherent thought

Or counter any lies

Love you Joe, you’ve got a good heart

Despite what some might say

But as far as serving four more years

It’s time to take the keys away
