[00:00.00]时代音乐网 www.78497.com[00:07.60]One fine day near the end of the tax year
[00:11.23]Mr richards was gripped by a new fear
[00:15.14]Who would be at his retirement party
[00:23.73]And though he still had years to go before he
[00:27.86]Slipped over the edge of the workforce
[00:31.80]The question remained and in his
[00:35.60]Wake there came an army
[00:42.20]What price creature comforts
[00:45.93]What is this life really all about
[00:49.31]He drew a line between work and living
[00:55.28]And work was winning out
[00:56.78]And he worked for half his life
[01:00.78]To spend the end just feeling tired out
[01:04.85]That's when his roof caved in
[01:14.69]And so he made a list of all the people he worked with
[01:18.88]And cut it down to the ones he got on with
[01:22.86]Paired each one off with the decade of his career
[01:31.61]And then he thought of all his friends from back home
[01:35.77]The crazies the ladies the lovers he'd known
[01:39.27]And then he looked around his office
[01:42.78]And wondered why he was still here
[01:47.78]What price creature comforts
[01:51.83]What is this life really all about
[01:55.25]He drew a line between work and living
[02:01.10]And work was winning out
[02:02.63]And he worked for half his life
[02:06.73]To spend the end just feeling tired out
[02:10.77]That's when he realised that he scrimped
[02:15.22]And saved all his precious days
[02:18.35]So he could buy icers and microwaves
[02:22.14]And he only looks forward to his holidays
[02:27.06]That's when his roof caved in
[02:29.72]And it would be nice to have holiday homes
[02:33.01]And healthy bank statements and fat little kids
[02:36.90]And i guess you can be happy to dream
[02:39.51]All your dreams as camcorder records of the things
[02:43.11]That you did
[02:44.45]But as soon as your sleeping does it really matter
[02:47.80]What mattress you happen to be sleeping on
[02:51.94]As long as your living and your having fun
[02:55.39]He always laughed at the drop outs
[02:57.35]That he could never live that way
[03:02.15]But the truth is mr richards was a coward
[03:05.36]He was afraid
[03:39.85]Mr richards decided on the very next morning
[03:44.04]To make his life and work the same thing
[03:47.80]Cleared he desk he hit the road and he never retired
