Do It Now!
If you’ve got a job to do,
Do it now!
If it’s one you wish were through,
Do it now!
If you’re sure the job’s your own,
Just tackle it alone;
Don’t hem and haw and groan -
Do it now!
Don’t put off a bit of work,
Do it now!
It doesn’t pay to shirk,
Do it now!
If you want to fill a place,
And be useful to the race,
Just get up and take a brace -
Do it now!
Don’t linger by the way,
Do it now!
You’ll lose if you delay,
Do it now!
If the other fellows wait,
Or postpone until it’s late,
You hit up a faster gait -
Do it now!
