Song of the Leisure Class

How I love days with nothing to do
and all the better if the sky is blue;
when I can brood to my heart's content
with nary a thought to weeding or rent.

How I love days when time is my own
to do as I please, to turn off the phone;
to think about nothing or think mighty thoughts
do what I feel like and not what I ought.

And this is not the impossible dream
doing it, not as hard as it seems;
here is the secret, now you've been told:
leisure comes naturally once you grow old.
