The drudgery of working
Sometimes you get no perk
But life is surrounding work
The idea of working is survival
When you go to work it seems like a chore
But let me explain more
Imagine working in an office from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm
Getting to working is no jive
In fact, one can’t wait until five
The responsibilities being all routine
Keeping on track with nothing in between
Meeting at 10:00
Preparation from when
Pressure during then
Presentation to impress
A Client’s Aptitude
I hope I am appreciated after I conclude
I must emphasize that the Client is enthused
A Firemen’s job to save and survive
There’s a fire at West 138th Street house
Like a speed of light, we must have our flashes on shining bright
It’s a matter of life or death
Now that is a Firemen’s job
You have seen two jobs working
Its morning again, you are in a rush
You are talking on the phone, but you are telling the party to hush
You burned the toast
You have no time to finish what you cooked on your plate
You are definitely running late
You dash out the door
You forgot sometime for sure
I just missed the downtown bus
I will hop in a cab being a plus
Now stuck in traffic
All I do is fuss
Now I am starting to cuss
I need to calm down being a must
Traffic Traffic Traffic
It’s just the norm being specific
What you have just witnessed, “Working-The Musical” a play about working
Did I encourage you to quit or retire?
Do be inspired
No time to explain as it has expired.
