Here I am a wondering
what will I do today
Being retired ain't easy
And it's not a life of play



Had my daily coffee
spanned my old PC
Watched a couple TV shows
What else is there for me



Already did the dishes
My wash is dried and hung
The songs that I remember
Heck - they've all been sung



Could get in the auto
take a spin somewhere
All my friends are working
I've no one left to share



Retirement - what's so special
waited a lifetime for this
Sitting around doing nothing
Playing with a satalite dish



Just don't pay to retire
a lonely life - just no fun
Tried to have me a party
Impossible - a party for "one"



Gotta get me back to work
Back to the good old days
Back to a hefty schedule
Those "non-retirement" ways



Just don't like the lonely life
Wondering - what do I do today
Set the alarm for a day that's filled
with purpose and action - My Way
