Lyrics

[INTRO]
Oh, the clock ticks on, the day has come,
No more grindin’, no longer on the run,
Goodbye to the office, goodbye to the stress,
Time to reclaim my life, I must confess.

[VERSE 1]
Forty years in the same old place,
Punching the clock, wearing a frown on my face,
Every day was a battle, with that Dan Marine,
Thought I’d lose my mind, if you know what I mean.

[CHORUS]
So long, Dan Marine, I’m breaking free,
No more meetings, just me and the sea,
Unplugged from the nonsense, oh what a thrill,
Life’s a new chapter, I’m ready to fill.

[VERSE 2]
He used to throw tantrums, made my blood boil,
Stepping on dreams like they were just soil,
But now that I’m free, I can laugh and I smile,
Living for myself, finally, all the while.

[CHORUS]
So long, Dan Marine, I’m breaking free,
No more meetings, just me and the sea,
Unplugged from the nonsense, oh what a thrill,
Life’s a new chapter, I’m ready to fill.

[BRIDGE]
No more late nights, no more deadlines,
Just sunsets and wine, my own designs,
Every sip feels like a victory sip,
Dancing on clouds, no more burdened grip.

[VERSE 3]
I’ve got fishing poles, a bike and some dreams,
Heading to the mountains or wherever it seems,
With no more Dan Marine to burst my balloon,
I’ll explore the world, under stars and the moon.

[CHORUS]
So long, Dan Marine, I’m breaking free,
No more meetings, just me and the sea,
Unplugged from the nonsense, oh what a thrill,
Life’s a new chapter, I’m ready to fill.

[OUTRO]
So here’s to the future, let the good times roll,
No more moping, I’m reclaiming my soul,
Goodbye to the past, I’ll make my own way,
Cheers to the life of a retiree’s play!
