29

How fantasy will make us fools
The mistress, the two kids, and the wife
The mansions, the sports cars, the swimming pools
To wake up wanting—so is life…

To own and win; then own some more
To be the boss and to pretend
To set the goals and settle score
Then wake up—knowing it’s the end…

The need to want will set us free
But 29 gets in the way
And now the rush to make dreams be
So wake up—time to waste the day…

Now running out of time, that’s it 
But time’s too cruel to stop and sit
So 30 is the look back year?
Won’t wake up—29 is here
