somebody’s gotta do it

May 8, 2019

It is 8am on a saturday morning

Can they be any more inconsiderate?

This is my day to sleep in and they’re ruining it.

I need to back out my driveway

But there is a garbage can in the way

Don’t they realize I need to pull my car out?


But somebody’s gotta do it

Somebody’s gotta wake up at the crack of dawn

And pick up our mess

Somebody’s gotta do the job we aren’t bold enough to do

And keep are cities clean

Without garbagemen our streets would look a mess

This is a piece acknowledging people (garbage truck workers) who are in an unappreciated field of work.
