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
