I don't like chores... I want to play!
I wish the work would go away!
It should wait until I'm through
With all the things I WANT to do.
But when I've played with car and truck
And then still have my chores... Oh, yuck!
They're worse to do whan I am tired.
Then I'm REALLY not inspired!
Work is simply not much fun.
I'd rather draw or play or run.
I should learn to not make messes.
Then I won't have these distresses.
Being neat is quite a job,
And "cleaning up" my time will rob.
(I should give away some stuff.
It seems I have more than enough.)
I will put my things away,
For I'm learning every day...
If I hurry and get done,
I'll have more time to just have fun!
