When you only live for yourself
You aren't really very much help
You just want to be lazy
Your life flies by all hazy
All your days are swallowed up in sleep
Not many friends can you keep
"When is my next nap?" You may say
"Nothing else to do today
Just sleep this life away"
But why not be less selfish?
Others need your time too
Why lay down and look so blue?
Your life could benefit someone
Or do you feel like you are done?
"I am old already" you say
But maybe if you would just pray
Your zest for life will return
You will no longer feel that burn
Of guilt from sleeping your life away
Get up and do a great thing today
