22.Retirement (Live In Berlin)
There are many things
that I would be proud of
If I'd only invented them
such as the wheel
The washing machine
and the tumble dryer
On these inventions
surely I could retire
I want to retire
No longer required
I want to get by
without the man on my back
A tear in my eye
With a heart full of pride
I must go out on a high
And tell nobody why
There are many things
that I know I could do
If I'd only have wanted to,
such as create
The perfect soulmate
everyone would admire
On this creation
surely I could retire
I want to retire
No longer required
I want to get by
without the man on my back
A tear in my eye
With a heart full of pride
I must go out on a high
And not to answer to why
I want to retire
Inform the suppliers
I'll leave the party in style
And not to be carried out
Without a cloud in the sky
I Got my fingers in pies
A Golden watch on my side
Will measure my free time
Now my place in History
is surely assured
I will be remembered here
forever more
Brand new product in place
and a potential buyer
Up on this next transaction
surely I could retire
I want to retire
No longer required
I want to get by
without the man on my back
A tear in my eye
With a heart full of pride
I must go out on a high
And not to answer to why
I want to retire
Inform the suppliers
I'll leave the party in style
And not to be carried out
Without a cloud in the sky
I Got my fingers in pies
A Golden watch on my side
Will measure my free time
