1
The days grow longer for smaller prizes
2
I feel a stranger to all surprises
3
You can have them I don't want them
4
I wear a different kind of garment
5
In my rehearsals for retirement
6
The lights are cold again they dance below me
7
I turn to old friends they do not know me
8
All but the beggar he remembers
9
I put a penny down for payment
10
In my rehearsals for retirement
11
Had I known the end would end in laughter
12
I tell my daughter it doesn't matter
13
The stage is tainted with empty voices
14
The ladies painted they have no choices
15
I take my colors from the stable
16
They lie in tatters by the tournament
17
In my rehearsals for retirement
18
Where are the armies who killed a country
19
And turned a strong man into a baby
20
No comes the rabble they are welcome
21
I wait in anger and amusement
22
In my rehearsals for retirement
23
Had I known the end would end in laughter
24
Still I tell my daughter that it doesn't matter
25
Farewell my own true love, farewell my fancy
26
Are you still owing me love, though you failed me
27
But one last gesture for her pleasure
28
I'll paint your memory on the monument
29
In my rehearsals for retirement
