Hail To The Feckless
What’s the point of bothering?
Or even to get up in the morning?
Why this rush to meet deadlines?
Just because a new day’s dawning?
People make too much of efficiency
And always being some place on time
Myself I can’t see the advantage
Being laid back’s not such a crime
Why stir yourself if you don’t need to?
If you can just watch what’s on the telly
The only reason to be stirring yourself
Is to service your bladder or belly
What’s all this about volunteering?
Putting yourself out there for others?
Leave it for someone else to do
Let them ask some other brothers
Someone else will sort out the mess
There’s people paid to be picking up litter
If I get involved and start interfering
It’ll only leave them seething and bitter
No, it’s best to just leave things as they are
And let the world keep rolling past
I sometimes wish that I was more worried
But I simply just can’t be arsed
