The better life

Newspapers and television
Shouting out loud
Telling me what to do
Thinkin for me, playing me for a fool.

People come visiting
Telling me to get a better life
What's a better life-
The number of zeroes in my pocket?

Waking up every morning
Working half assed
Something's wrong somewhere
Is it me, is it you?

Planned a lot of stuff
For the mid life crisis,
The seven year itch,
The belly,
The retirement.

Whatever happened to me
Like I could stop it all happening
Start living
Get the better life.
