Why is it that I always seem to do things at the last minute?
I wish I knew, I really do.
I always need to scramble for time
To think for a moment and find a rhyme.
Procrastination is my game,
If it was a sport I would have lots of fame.
Don’t get me wrong, it’s not that I’m unenthused
More that I have no time and I have to peruse
All my project papers at the last minute to see all the details I’ve missed
And that’s when I wish
That I didn’t Idle my school work.
Because this plate is to big for me to eat man.
I don’t think I can do it,
These papers are about to hit the fan.
Maybe it’s because I have two jobs or maybe it’s because of the weather
All I know is I vow
Right here, right now.
To stop Idling my school work like my crappy Lemon of a car.
