Lyrics

So you're feeling kind of down because your life is almost half over

They say you can't do the things that you used to do

Well there ain't no shame in someone getting a little older

Now hold on tight because I got some news for you



Well I heard some high-class fashion guru on my TV screen

Make a statement which I must admit enlightened me



He said: 40 is the New 30 I guess I was the last to know

I can still have a good time out with the band after the show

I'm old enough to know what I want but I can still get down and dirty

So let me tell you honey "40 is the New 30"



Everybody's there at the old high school reunion

Trying to hold on to ancient memories

Complaining 'bout all these new lines and wrinkles

But baby like a good wine you sure aged fine to me… Yes indeed!



Well I heard some high-class fashion guru on my TV screen

Make a statement I hope you will find inspiring





He said: 40 is the New 30 Yeah you heard what I said

You can still take the town with your girlfriends after you put your kids to bed

Got the brains and looks to make a young boy blush if you're feeling kind of flirty

So let me tell you honey "40 is the New 30"



I don't mean for you to forget about your past

All I'm saying is that your life's a half full glass
