The Land of Old Man
Welcome to where I stand or sit
Mostly the latter to be real
In my twilight, or golden years
Where the land of old man's the deal
My retirement is impending
But in the land of old man you'll see
The "Golden" years of retirement
Aren't all they're cracked up to be!
My giving up punching the clock
Was looking great to me off hand
But Arthur Rightus said, "Hold on,"
"You're now in the land of old man!"
So as I sit here on my throne
I realize I need some more bran
Though hard to chew, it helps me through
This place called, "The land of old man!"
