Lazy

N. Botton 2008 (Boca Raton)



Home alone stuck all day
Confused what to do on my bed I lay
My work not done I don’t want to do it
I probably should I will admit
I’m only in the mood to play
My homework seems so far away
Laziness is cost for this price I must pay
It’s all done, but I always forget to click submit
Home alone
Life is good without work or an essay
Life will fade into gray if I keep up this delay
The work can be finished if I just commit
Except every time I start I begin to quit
So on the bed I will stay, but it’s not okay
Home alone
