Time To Rewire

When a person retires
  It's time to rewire

The first thing to do?
  Break your clock in two

No more 'early,' no more 'late'
  No train to catch, no bus for to wait

And when you no longer obsess about time
  For Pete's sake, stop counting every last dime

Go ahead, sport, enjoy spending your money
  Your grandkids will love you, and so will your honey

Now just follow these tips exactly as written
  ~ And an early grave is what you will sit in
