I might have once had rizz When I was young and tanned Alas, alack not now That time has dealt its hand Too much sun, too little care Whilst many men in their later years Still kick their heels to the rizzy-beat We women face an uphill climb Unless, of course, we cheat The lines, the nests The puckered lip The saggy neck And more The liver spots The greying hair Plus creases quite galore For men a rugged look is good But ladies; oh dear no If I turned up on the social scene I'd be shown the 'no-rizz' door So perhaps a 'sans rizz' friendly group Could begin recruitment drive And offer blessed sanctuary For all those past their prime Not only for us oldies But all the youngies too Who feel left out And live with doubt Whether rizz or not can do
