Arrogance Does Not Have An Age To It

He told me yesterday was his birthday number ninety one
I offered to him my congratulations and a well done
It has been many years since he was in his life's prime
Though he is one who does not seem over-wrinkled from time

The hair on his balding head dyed chestnut brown
One of the arrogant aged males of the town
Though i knew i was not talking to a wise old sage
I told him he looked rather well for his age

A compliment that did seem to suit him quite well
Since by his body language the ego in him had begun to swell
He said in my youth i was a champion athlete
And today with males many years younger with success i compete

His own praises he seems quite willing to sing
With many nowadays this does seem an in thing
Arrogance does not have an age to it only true to say
Arrogant males young and old one does meet every day

For his age he is one who is light on his feet
But thanks be to goodness he is one i do not often meet
The arrogant males of the World are not rare
Am i telling you something of you are aware.
