about

Therapy or just some fancy dance moves?

lyrics

Let me take a moment to teach you a new dance
For women of a certain age and uncertain libido
We’ll take the steps slowly. We can always repeat so don’t worry if you forget / just follow my credo

If you don’t like the state of your hair and skin
If gravity sag is settling in. (You wonder)
What happened to your sense of smell and taste
How did your clothes get so small around the waist?
Where did your life go? Get up and go go?
Eschew the fandango - do the menopause tango.

If sleeping is a problem or you can’t concentrate
Get up, take a few measured steps and don’t feel rushed
Wear several layers of clothing so you can strip them off
One by one by one when the going gets … flushed

Hormone replacement is so passé
Just do this dance any time night or day
Take one step backwards for irritability
Come in close for anxiety
Go for a mood swing, whatever you’re feeling
Swallow a gin sling but do the menopause tango

Whatever your lingo, even if you’re a gringo
Don’t run off and join a quango
Do the menopause tango
