The Best Job Ever
This is indeed truthfully the life
so really good it's simply the best
your time's your own at your peace
whenever you like be fully at rest
In Scotland the bus pass is free
at retirement age travel all around
it's great to walk in countryside
visit historical cultural sites abound
If reading is your favourite thing
visit library or download to app
so much scope to read or study
just no reason to get in a flap
Holidays can be taken anytime
you go far or near just anywhere
car, train or jump on the plane
you may even get a reduced fare
Yes it is all I had truly hoped for
don't worry if you don't sleep at night
the next days completely your own
the best job ever yes too right!
(Retirement: highly recommended)
