Just can't take it anymore
I think I will retire
I'd like that very much
To be done for the day
All the days
To work no more
I'm tired, boss
Of these people
Of this place
Of my work
So tired
This work has never meant all that much to me
Truth be told
You are probably questioning now
What else have I fibbed about
The whole damn lot of life
I've lied about
Who I am
What I have done
Where I go at night
When I will have that report for you
A fibber to the core then
You must be thinking
I suppose you would be right
But I'm tired now and
Can't muster up the energy to come up with any more
I'm hanging up the mantle, all the mantles that
I've accumulated over the years
Legitimately or less than legitimately
All of it has lost its luster
I don't get the same rush
From these trivial things anymore
And all things are trivial
And that's a truth that I can't hide
For I'm sure you already know
I've spoken my fill now, and I'm sorry
You couldn't get a word in edgewise
But that's all the words I had left in me
I'm sure you will have the chance to
Tear into someone else later on
As for me, I'm done now, those were all I had left
Well, perhaps, I may have just a few more.
