My Paper Due Monday

This is the paper due by next Monday.

What’s the rush, it’s only Wednesday.

I’ll do it after I play with my clay.

And after I go out to practice baseball

And after I buy some pants at the mall

And after I see a movie with a friend.

Oh yeah, today I have a card to send.

Now it’s Sunday, so I still have a night.

I’ll do it after my dad’s wrestling fight.

Now I just have some sleep to get.

I’ll do it at 7—my alarm’s set.

So that paper and me—we never met.

And trust me—I paid a huge debt.
