There’s no time like the present
I have no patience
For people who complain
About not having things happen
In their life
When they are always
Procrastinating
There’s no time like the present
If there is something
That needs to get done
Just get it done
And out of the way
So it doesn’t
Hang over your head
There’s no time like the present
Wake up and make a list
Tell yourself you will
Complete every task
On your list
Check each one off
As it is completed
There’s no time like the present
