So here's to freedom, to new days ahead,
Cleaning up sick, late into the night.
But sometimes she turned into a vulture wild.
Gonna find my passion, new role, new game.
Dealt with the chaos, smiled through the strife,
Gave it my all, in that school life.
Got my man by my side, he's my rock and my guide,
Redundancy's here, and I feel so free,
Just me and my dreams, breaking down walls.
Eighteen years, at my desk every day,
Kept the wheels turning, in my own little way.
With love and support, I'll find my way,
Boss was a bluetit, oh so sweet and mild,
From toddlers to teens, gave it my best.
No more Jekyll and Hyde, no more screeching calls,
A weight off my shoulders, no more anxiety.
The school's behind me, memories remain,
But now I've got sunshine, instead of the rain.
Now I've got time, summer's calling my name,
Now it's my turn, to choose my own way,
Handled angry parents, dealt with all the mess,
Juggling the money, keeping books tight,
To passions ignited, no more dread.
I saw it coming, wasn't a surprise,
With his love, I know I'll decide.
Redundancy payment, oh, what a prize.
A bright new chapter, starting today.
A bright new future, starting today.
