Electricity
Retired Bliss: A Journey Through Power and Pride
Lyrics
I was thinking again that I was privileged
I reflected on my privilege
That I had a great job and I liked it very much
I had a satisfying job that I enjoyed
Now I'm retired and happy and I can still recall
Now retired and content, recalling work memories
All the memories from my work
Reflecting on past work experiences
I dealt with colleagues that were so skilled
Worked with highly skilled colleagues
Never had the fear of doing mistakes
No fear of making mistakes
All well, all well for sure
All was well and secure
We were working in the toughest business
Worked in the challenging field of Control System Supervision
Control System Supervision of electrical utilities
Specifically in electrical utilities
Our system was one of the best in the world
Had one of the best systems globally
It was certainly a great thing
A source of pride
If you look at world it can be found everywhere
Electricity is ubiquitous in the world
Pleased to see it here and there
Happy to see its positive impact
It contributes to the balance
Contributes to balance and stability
And that feels good you know
A satisfying feeling
I have all the right to be proud of that
Rightfully proud of achievements
We could beat the competition
Successfully competed and marketed systems
And sell our systems good
Sold systems effectively
I could be so fine and I'll hang around
Feeling good and reminiscing
I will linger on my memories
Lingering on positive memories
You can't be so sure if it will last for so long
Uncertainty about the duration of success
And that is so hard to accept
Difficulty accepting potential decline
You couldn't be without electricity oh, no
Emphasizing the essentiality of electricity
It's here to stay hey, hey
Stating its permanence
We want it, we want it
Expressing a desire for electricity
Oh we want it, we want it
Repeating the desire for electricity
We want it, we want it alright
Emphasizing the strong desire for electricity
