Текст песни Mr Richards - Frank Turner
One
fine
day
near
the
end
of
the
tax
year
Mr
Richards
was
gripped
by
a
new
fear
Who
would
be
at
his
retirement
party
And
though
he
still
had
years
to
go
before
he
Slipped
over
the
edge
of
the
workforce
The
question
remained
and
in
his
wake
there
came
an
army
What
price
creature
comforts
– what
is
this
life
really
all
about?
He
drew
a
line
between
work
and
living,
and
work
was
winning
out
And
he
worked
for
half
his
life,
to
spend
the
end
just
feeling
tired
out
That's
when
his
roof
caved
in
And
so
he
made
a
list
of
all
the
people
he
worked
with
And
cut
it
down
to
the
ones
he
got
on
with
Paired
each
one
off
with
the
decade
of
his
career
And
then
he
thought
of
all
his
friends
from
back
home
The
crazies,
the
ladies,
the
lovers
he'd
known
And
then
he
looked
around
his
office
and
wondered
why
he
was
still
here
What
price
creature
comforts
What
is
this
life
really
all
about?
He
drew
a
line
between
work
and
living,
and
work
was
winning
out
And
he
worked
for
half
his
life,
to
spend
the
end
just
feeling
tired
out
That's
when
he
realised
that
he
scrimped
and
saved
all
his
precious
days
So
he
could
buy
icers
and
microwaves
And
he
only
looks
forward
to
his
holidays
That's
when
his
roof
caved
in
And
it
would
be
nice
to
have
holiday
homes
And
healthy
bank
statements
and
fat
little
kids,
And
I
guess
you
can
be
happy
to
dream
all
your
dreams
As
camcorder
records
of
the
things
that
you
did,
But
as
soon
as
your
sleeping
does
it
really
matter
What
mattress
you
happen
to
be
sleeping
on?
As
long
as
your
living
and
your
having
fun;
He
always
laughed
at
the
drop-outs,
That
he
could
never
live
that
way.
But
the
truth
is
Mr
Richards
was
a
coward,
he
was
afraid.
Mr
Richards
decided
on
the
very
next
morning
To
make
his
life
and
work
the
same
thing
Cleared
he
desk,
he
hit
the
road
and
he
never
retired.
