Everyone wants
A big award
Don't they?

They want to
Be acknowledged
And told how great
They are

And told about
How much they do
For others

And on and on
And on
Blah blah blah
Blah blah

I need no
Acknowledgement
Or praise
No awards

Just do the job
And get on
With life

And I'm happy
Being lazy
Doing the minimum

No
I haven't made
Anyone "proud"

I haven't received
A distinguished
Service award

And that is cool
If people are awarded

Millions of people
Doing their jobs
What they need to do

And they aren't getting
Any awards
