Charlie will be sixty-four very soon

from w
There's apparently  a royal tour happening. Charles and Camilla are in Papua New Guinea, will visit Oz and then in New Zealand they will rub noses with the gentry there as well as celebrate Charlie's birthday. Sixty-four. Now that's a song by the Beatles so here's the special song for Charlie and Camilla.

Songwriters: LENNON, JOHN / MCCARTNEY, PAUL
When i get older losing my hair,
Many years from now.
Will you still be sending me a valentine
Birthday greetings bottle of wine.
If i'd been out till quarter to three
Would you lock the door,
Will you still need me, will you still feed me,
When i'm sixty-four.
You'll be older too,
And it you say the word,
I could stay with you.
I could be handy, mending a fuse
When your lights have gone.
You can knit a sweater by the fireside
Sunday mornings go for a ride,
Doing the garden, digging the weeds,
Who could ask for more.
Will you still need me, will you still feed me,
When i'm sixty-four.
Every summer we can rent a cottage,
In the isle of wight, if it's not too dear
We shall scrimp and save
Grandchildren on your knee
Vera chuck & dave
Send me a postcard, drop me a line,
Stating point of view
Indicate precisely what you mean to say
Yours sincerely, wasting away
Give me your answer, fill in a form
Mine for evermore
Will you still need me, will you still feed me,

When i'm sixty-four.

And in Australia - at Government House with two koalas. I wonder what Camilla is thinking - will that koala pee on me?
