Håkan's New Groove

[Verse]
Håkan hangs his work coat up, today he's sixty-five,
No more stacks of papers, now it's time to feel alive.
He's got a spatula in one hand, a broom in the other,
Says, "Time to cook and clean, guess I'll boss myself, brother."

[Chorus]
Cold beer on the porch, sun sinking low,
Cookies in his pocket, 'cause wherever he goes.
He's got advice for the neighbors, showing how it's done,
Håkan's new groove has only just begun.

[Verse]
The dog’s leash in hand, they wander 'cross the town,
Sniffin' out the stories where the grass grows brown.
He strums his old guitar where the memories collide,
Sings a tune for the evening and the life he's supplied.

[Chorus]
Cold beer on the porch, sun sinking low,
Cookies in his pocket, 'cause wherever he goes.
He's got advice for the neighbors, showing how it's done,
Håkan's new groove has only just begun.

[Bridge]
There’s wisdom in his wrinkles, and a twinkle in his eye,
The mower hums, the coffee brews, as he waves to passersby.
"Keep that edge neat!" he hollers, while the dog shakes his head,
It’s Håkan’s way of living, every step perfectly led.

[Verse]
No deadlines, just daylight, as he hums a cheerful tune,
A serenade for each new day beneath the afternoon.
Cookies for his journey, a leash, a cold glass near,
Håkan toasts to six-and-five, a life all good and clear.
