Tired

 

I’m a man whose tired and worn

Empty and dead on my feet,

Petered out, played out, pooped and torn

Burnout broke down and beat.

 

Drowsy, droopy, drooping drained

Dog tired, done in, done for,

Exasperated, enervated empty faint

Overtaxed, overworked and bored

 

Sick of, sleepy, spent and stale

Haggard, run down, all in

Consumed, collapsing, asleep, annoyed

Exhausted, bygone and barren

 

Ramshackle, rickety, run-down and frail

Bedraggled, broken-down and creaky

Threadbare, tottering, tired and used

Feeble, fragile and flimsy

 

Out of shape, out of gas, done in and feeble

Gone to seed, soft, incapacitated

Listless, washed out, weakened, on the ropes

Undermined, fatigued, prostrated.

 

Discontented, dissatisfied, tacky and dull

Jaded, glum and gloomy

Sick and tired, up to here, driveling, drab

Sated, down and weary

 

Befuddled, unsteady, wobbly and faint

Pallid, pale and lean

Stupefied, staggering, slaphappy, subdued

Oh damn, I got to go pee.
