A house that needs a cleaning
Gardens that need tending
Groceries for the larder
And a fence that needs some mending
Grass is nearly one foot high
The dog, he needs a walk
He's gotten just so overweight
But, who am I to talk
Donations to deliver
Things that need be done
A tree to trim a little
But no time to have fun
It takes up all of my spare time
It almost makes me dizzy
I've been retired seven years
And I've never been so busy

A house that needs a cleaning
Gardens that need tending
Groceries for the larder
And a fence that needs some mending
Grass is nearly one foot high
The dog, he needs a walk
He's gotten just so overweight
But, who am I to talk
Donations to deliver
Things that need be done
A tree to trim a little
But no time to have fun
It takes up all of my spare time
It almost makes me dizzy
I've been retired seven years
And I've never been so busy
