(With no apologies to Kesha)

I wake up in the morning

Run off to the gym.

A bit confused why if I work out

I’m always staying in.

I walk for the best part of an hour

But I never leave my place

And yet the girls that jog  beside me

I most truly race

.I run in circles getting  nowhere

Display my muscles through my sportswear

While all along I know it’s not fair

I’m well out of my league.

The guys have all been cloned from Rumbo

The girls all jump around  like Dumbo

While I’m a copy of Columbo

Overcast with fatigue.

I move over to the stepper

And I begin my climb

The guy beside me’s topped the Everest

Judging from his time.

My knees are doing Ramba

A hint I’ve gone to far

Perhaps I should settle for a work out

At my favorite sports bar.

.I run in circles getting  nowhere

Display my muscles through my sportswear

While all along I know it’s not fair

I’m well out of my league.

The guys have all been cloned from Rumbo

The girls all jump around  like Dumbo

While I’m a copy of Columbo

Overcast with fatigue.

It’s time for pumping iron

with some really dumb bells

I feel like roaring like a lion

Oh, if I could William, tell.

As I lie here on the mat

I feel my ligaments snap.

And have the feeling that

In the foreseeable future

I may not be coming back

—-

I run in circles getting  nowhere

Display my muscles through my sportswear

While all along I know it’s not fair

I’m well out of my league.

The guys have all been cloned from Rumbo

The girls all jump around  like Dumbo

While I’m a copy of Columbo

Overcast with fatigue.
