The Thief of Time

The Thief of Time

Tomorrow I will do my best
And put my world to right
I’ll clear the heap of paperwork
Before tomorrow night

Next week I’ll organise myself
I’ll take myself to task
I’ll do it then – but not just now
That’s just too much to ask!

Next month will be a better time
To tackle all those things
Those forms in brown manilla
That the postman always brings

Next year perhaps I’ll do it
I’ll start the year off fine
I won’t put off the hour
And give it to the thief of time
