“Old Age” is the final single from Masego’s debut album Lady Lady. Flaunting a feature from SiR, the track sees the duo compare the qualities of older and younger women.
Masego broke down the meaning of “Old Age” in a Genius Verified video—watch here!
[Intro: Renny & Ms. Johnson]
(He-he-he-he, so where you gon' go with that?)
"How you doing, Miss Johnson?"
"How you doing, baby?"
"Fat ol' ass, eh"
"Oh my gosh. Why would you—Why would you say that?
I got a son, I have a s—"
"I want that"
"I got a son, Charlie"
"I know you got a son
Listen:
[Chorus: Masego & Ms. Johnson]
I need me a sugar momma, old lady
Foxy mama, sophisticated
Sugar mama, old lady
Foxy mama, sophisticated
Old age don't mean nothin' to me
Wise man said “age ain't nothin' but a number”
(Why would you say that?)
[Verse 1: Masego]
(Young gal) She don't get my jokes or my references
(Old lady) She ain't with the tech or the messages
(Young gal) Love dance, gettin' sorta decadent, ah
(Old lady) Tied up, she ain't even stressin' kids
If you can’t cook me a plate (Woah) after we mate
That ain't a date, I ain't ya man
You don't know your body yet
You don't know your body yet
[Chorus: Masego]
I need me a sugar momma, old lady
Foxy mama, sophisticated
Sugar mama, old lady
Foxy mama, sophisticated
Old age don't mean nothin' to me
Wise man said “age ain't nothin' but a number”
(He-he-he, lemme holla at you for a second)
[Verse 2: SiR]
Little baby, little heart, I break it (Heart, I break it)
I'm chasin' me a Sanaa Lathan (Sanaa Lathan)
She payin' for the wine dine
Ain't worried 'bout my time
Might even deny my stayin' overnight
I'm sayin', I'm just fly by baggin' (Fly by baggin')
I’ll take what she supply my favorite (My favorite)
Any time I see my line start ringin'
For some part time lovin'
From the heart I'm bringing
(Young girls) She ain't even got that arch in her back
(Old ladies) Treat her special cause she know how to act
(Young girls) Never dove in an ocean so blue
(Old ladies) She's just here for the view
[Chorus: SiR & Ms. Johnson]
And I need me a sugar momma, old lady
Foxy mama, sophisticated
Sugar mama, old lady
Foxy mama, sophisticated
Old age don't mean nothin' to me
Wise man said “age ain't nothin' but a number”
(Why would you say that?)
Old Age was written by Jasper Harris & SiR & Masego.
Old Age was produced by Jahnei Clarke & Masego & Jasper Harris.
The moment that inspired this song, I was kind of in this relationship with this older woman. And the only reason she wanted to end it was her friends convinced her it wouldn’t work based on our age. She was like four years older than me. Right? It’s not even crazy. And we had a similar income. My l...
The production of it, it’s this whole story, but basically those cats received the beat from, I think Daytrip. I don’t know how it got to them but some of that “Mo Bamba” energy seeped through to that record, I guess. They’re based out of New York. Jasper is amazing. He has this kind of like Fisher-...
SiR has this smoker voice that I don’t know if y'all really hear. He really always talks about old stories and like his voice just doesn’t work any more. He’s always joking around. And we were just joking around about older women versus younger women. He was like, “yeah they never have food in their...
