Exposition

I’ve lived in this house a long time
Had the same profession the whole time
Though I’ve changed jobs two or three times
The children have all grown up
A couple have kids of their own
My wife and I have a lot of fun
Sometimes we get bored

Life stresses me out and I get depressed
I should exercise more cut down on sweets
I enjoy mowing the lawn
Pulling ivy off the trees
I could do without scrubbing the toilet
I enjoy reading and listening to music

I don’t really like travel or driving a car
Just a homebody I guess
But I like interacting with other people
I love chatting with my wife
But other than that
Somebody must come here
Or I go out there

Sometimes somebody tries to win a point
And it turns into conflict
I don’t recall blows ever having been exchanged
But that’s a sad way to switch up the day-to-day
It cannot be that one is washed in the blood of the Lamb

I’ve always been middle class
I have nothing to complain of
