Try Something New
I want a different job, something like working at the zoo,
I'm ready for a change and it certainly is something Gnu.
A Baywatch lifeguard on the beach, I have not done that before,
but my swimming skills are rusty, so now I am quite unshore.
Maybe an Egyptologist, in my pith helmet parading,
but not a grave robber as I think that would be dig raiding.
A Matador in sunny Spain, the arena crowded full,
but livestock I don't fancy, no, I am not adore a bull.
Perhaps a Lighthouse keeper, flashing warnings across the sea,
my own boss and all by myself, yes, I think that could beamy.
I could try breeding horses for the track, that would be good,
but maybe such a career change would not be under stud.
I'll stick to making circuit boards, desire for change has gone,
so I'll stay with what I'm good at here, and calmly solder on.
