If you haven't heard "Just Us Kids" by James McMurtry you should check it out. The whole song is great but the one verse I can't get out of my head is the last one:
Ya know we could really have it all
Our kid's gonna graduate next fall
I could take retirement in 10 years
It's a damn short movie
How'd we ever get here?
Just us kids hangin' out today
Watchin' our long hair turnin' gray
Not so skinny maybe not so free
Not so many as we used to be
Man - it sucks to get old.
