Laziness, have I ever offended thee?
I’ll do it tomorrow, I promise you true,
It’s top of my list of the things I must do.
I know that I said I would do it today,
But forgot that my team were playing away.
You know that I never used that one before,
Well maybe - when I should have varnished the door,
But don’t you just call it another excuse,
Never once did I ever complain or refuse.
The lawn it needs cutting, and so does the edge,
The roses need pruning no more than the hedge,
The digging can wait until the first frost,
That saves on manure and cuts down the high cost.
The shelves that you wanted put up in the shed,
Large boxes would do if we used them instead,
The rubbish you wanted moved down to the dump,
I have a flat tyre and can’t find the air pump.
The windows you said that needed a clean,
Was a pure waste of time, to me it did seem,
Not only did I have a dreadful back pain,
But the weatherman said it was going to rain.
I’ll do all you’ve asked me when I’m feeling well,
I know I’ve upset you, it’s so easy to tell,
But there’s no need to sulk, you are, I can see,
Because laziness, have I, ever offended thee?
