Pensioner Blues ( lyrics and music: Kemigrafen & Tompahelmet)

Kenneth

I woke up this morning and realised I was a pensioner.

I woke up this morning and realised I was a pensioner.

I used to work, so what the heck was this?

 

Tommy

I used to go to work at 06.52.

I used to go to work at 06.52.

Now I can go back to bed, but I still got enough time!

 

Kenneth & Tommy - Chorus

   We got Pensioner Blues, Pensioner Blues is what we got.

   We got Pensioner Blues, Pensioner Blues is what we got.

   We donīt need to work, but we still got lots in our life left.

 

Kenneth

I can ride a bus for free between 9 and 3.

I can ride a bus for free between 9 and 3.

I get off at Co-op and we will see what happens next.

 

Tommy

I take the bus down to the gym, to work out.

I take the bus down to the gym, to work out.

I lift dumbbells and barbells, to try and put my arthritis on hold.

 

Kenneth

The 19th every month you receive some cash.

The 19th every month you receive some cash.

Itīll cover food and rent and maybe a couple of beers.

Tommy

Every week on Friday I take a walk with my poles.

Every week on Friday I take a walk with my poles.

Then I fill out a Lotto coupon and hope itīll bring me some extra money.
