He Is Tired

He is tired of the boredom of his humdrum life And tired of being nagged at by his ageing wife Always trying to goad him into a verbal fight Whatever he does with her does not seem right Tired of working hard for below average pay Kind things of his boss he does not have to say Five days a week he wakes before daybreak And cycles to his workplace when few are awake Yet people in their ways are so very strange He lacks in the courage to bring about change Prefer to moan to himself that the good days are gone Living with as he now does he will go on Tired of living in the same old way And tired of the people he meet every day Than instigate changes to himself he'd rather complain So tired of life till he dies he'll remain.
