Lyrics

[INTRO]
Oh uncle Jim, rise and shine,
Notice the changes, the passage of time,
With liver spots, and grey on your crown,
Here comes the nightmare, I’m coming to town.

[VERSE 1]
Each morning you wake, with fear in your eyes,
Do you feel the chill as a shadow flies by?
It’s not hurt I plan, it’s a twist of fate,
With love in my heart, I won’t leave it too late.

[CHORUS]
Oh uncle Jim, don’t tremble, don’t shake,
I’m here to fight for you, make no mistake,
In this game of life, we’ll twist and we’ll turn,
I’ll be there for you, it’s my love that you’ll earn.

[VERSE 2]
When you start to act up, lose your way,
I’ll step in and guide you, come what may,
Through the nursing home doors, we’ll roll you in style,
Just wait ‘til you see me, I’ll be here for a while.

[CHORUS]
Oh uncle Jim, don’t tremble, don’t shake,
I’m here to fight for you, make no mistake,
In this game of life, we’ll twist and we’ll turn,
I’ll be there for you, it’s my love that you’ll earn.

[BRIDGE]
And when I’m all done, tired from the game,
With laughter and love, I’ll whisper your name,
Goodnight sweet prince, as I watch you dream,
Smother you softly, in this bizarre scheme.

[VERSE 3]
I’ll pinch your cheeks, give your wheel a spin,
Feed you your dinner while I wear a grin,
A little smear here, oh what a sight,
You’ll be my puppet, oh what pure delight!

[CHORUS]
Oh uncle Jim, don’t tremble, don’t shake,
I’m here to fight for you, make no mistake,
In this game of life, we’ll twist and we’ll turn,
I’ll be there for you, it’s my love that you’ll earn.

[OUTRO]
So here’s to our journey, it’s only begun,
With this crazy love, we’ll laugh and we’ll run,
Oh uncle Jim, in the light of the day,
