Put your feet up maybe let the world pass by

Keep off the street, go away and wait to die

What you don't see is what life means to me

My woman says it ain't right

For a man my age to fight

She don't get it

She ain't in it

I'm pushed to the limit


Two clean shirts, I'm puffing on an old cigar

I still love women, sex and fancy cars

What you don't conceive is just what I believe

My doctor says it ain't right

For a man my age to fight

He don't get it

he ain't in it

I'm pushed to the limit


Is it nice and cozy, sitting there in your evening chair

Is your paper pressed like your string vest

It's enough to make you rip out your hair


Relations sit and wring their hands

How long will I survive

Here's the cherry, there's more spunk left

Kiss my arse, I'm still alive


You keep it nice and quiet boy, but please don't pacify me

I'm just not ready for the shade of an old oak tree

What you don't see is what life means to me

And my dad's an angry man, sometimes like Desperate Dan

And he gets it

And he's in it

He's pushed to the limit


My doctor says it ain't right

For a man my age to fight

He says put out the light

He don't get it

He ain't in it

I'm pushed to the limit
