I'll Do It When I Have Time.

The laundry is piling like a mountain,

My sink is fuller than a fountain,

Oh! My desk looks like another mountain!

My carpet looks like its been rolling

in the muck,

And my windows are dirty,

They really suck!

The chores are mine;

I'll draw the line,

Not today!

I'll do it when I have time!

Time still ticks,

And chores never get done,

I've decided to bathe in the sun.

I need some shopping,

And I am starving;

But oh!

I'll do it when I have time!

But time has no essence,

In my muse,

I try to do it,

But it's no use.

So today I sigh,

Sitting on a mountain high;

But all I can say is,

I'll do it when I have time!

Still pondering...

The question remains,

I'll do it when I have time!

But I have another one too,

Will you?
