"Yesterday's Man"

I could stay home, I could vegetate

But that's not part of the plan

I'll walk, I'll ride, I'll explore this world

I won't be yesterday's man

I've more to give, there's people to help

I'll finish what I began

I've experience people can value

I won't be yesterday's man

There are gigs and plays and films to see

And clapping to Darcy's cancan

Backing creatives all doing their thing

I won't be yesterday's man

I sit at the keyboard writing my words

Once slow, now time that I ran

There are stories that I need to get out

I won't be yesterday's man

Sitting it out and just getting old?

Not part of my pension plan

Life is there to be lived every day

I won't be yesterday's man
