One joy of getting older
Is all the doors that shut
So many opportunities
I don't have to take up
So much I can say no to
I'm on a different path
When fate comes calling at my door
I'll be in the bath
And now I don't have to worry about
Taking a teacher training test
I don't have to worry about
Getting any better at playing chess
I don't have to worry about
The ability to chat in conversational Spanish
I don't have to worry about
Getting my head around Quantum Mechanics
I used to wonder
If I was missing out
But now I know I'm not
Without a shadow of a doubt
I've seen all the support bands
I've read those tricky books,
I've learnt VB and SQL
And that's enough
And now I don't have to worry about
Finally, actually, learning to knit
I don't have to worry about
Developing a vegan version of fish
I don't have to worry about
Seeing every UK railway station
I don't have to worry about
Making a speech at The United Nations
There are seas I wish to sail
And mountains I would climb
But I will have more chance if I
Do not misuse my time
So sorry to sign languange and
Riding a motorbike
I'll be busy doing something else that I
Actually like
Because I don't have to worry about
Taking a trip to Vietnam
I don't have to worry about
Finding the time to make my own jam
I don't have to worry about
Achieving any kind of Personal Best
I don't have to worry about
Thwarting terrorism in a fresh white vest
I don't have to worry about
Standing for election as an MP
I don't have to worry about
Meeting and annoying Paul McCartney
I don't have to worry about
Cashing in my account with Griffen Savers
I don't have to worry about
Becoming a professional poker player
I don't have to worry about
Working out how on earth to beat match
I don't have to worry about
Seeing any kind of point to modern jazz

Cheer up love
It might never happen
Come on duck
Why the long face?
Give's a smile
It's all that I'm asking
I'm trying to help
You through your day
I don't know
What might have happened
Maybe you
Have a reason to be sad
But surely
Someone shouting "cheer up"
Will cure any ills, more than pills
And make you glad
Hey! There's no need
To get all aggresive
I just thought
It could help in some way
But now you
Have killed me with an axe
And the last words that I heard was you say
Cheer up love
It might never happen
Come on duck
Why the long face?
Here's a smile
As that's what you wanted
Thank you for helping
Me through my day
Your bloodied corpse has
Really made my day
