Parents’ Hilarious Parody About Life After 40 Hits Home

The Johnson Family is back with another uproarious parody, this time taking aim at the realities of hitting the big 4-0. Their latest video sheds light on the changes that come with this milestone, and let’s be honest, many of us can relate. The long version of the story? It’s a bit of a drag, but the short version is that you find yourself getting tired way earlier and, shockingly, you’re no longer the cool kid on the block. But here’s the silver lining—you start to embrace it.

This catchy tune is a playful twist on Justin Bieber’s “Sorry,” and the lyrics are pure gold.

“We hit the club, thinking we’d unleash our wild side,
But the sitter asked, ‘Why are you heading out at 5:30?’
It’s ’cause we want you to serve our kids some mac and cheese,
And we learned how to party, just not too late, please.”

Ouch! It’s funny, yet it stings just a little—because it’s all too true…

“When we arrived, the place was practically empty,
The sun was still shining, and Nancy Grace was on the screen.
For an hour, we danced to some old-school jams,
But by nine, when the new hits started to play,
It’s too late now, I’m 40, my body just can’t keep up.
Yes, it’s too late now, I’m 40,
Oh, how I wish I could just let loose,
But it’s too late now, I’m 40.”

Honestly, I find myself grumbling when my favorite show doesn’t start until 10 p.m. What has become of me?

“We do the Macarena, but now everyone’s staring,
But at 40, who cares? It’s liberating to realize
That knowing you’re not cool is a type of freedom.
We dance until we’re drowsy, just living our lives…”

“I turn 40 in March, but I’m already feeling it,” said Lisa Johnson during an interview with TODAY Parents. “I’ve been writing ‘40’ on forms for months! I’m embracing this age. I love my comfy clothes, I love my sleep, and honestly, I feel more at ease in my own skin than I did in my twenties. I can bust out my old dance moves and not care if people laugh—there’s joy in that!”

Absolutely! There are some real perks to aging.
