Shel Silverstein - I`ve Been Working So Hard Shel Silverstein - I`ve Been Working So Hard
Work rating: Low


I`ve been working so hard you just wouldn`t believe, And I`m tired! There`s so little time and so much to achieve, And I`m tired! I`ve been lying here holding the grass in its place, Pressing a leaf with the side of my face, Tasting the apples to see if they`re sweet, Counting the toes on a centipede`s feet. I`ve been memorizing the shape of that cloud, Warning the robins to not chirp so loud, Shooing the butterflies off the tomatoes, Keeping an eye out for floods and tornadoes. I`ve been supervising the work of the ants And thinking of pruning the cantaloupe plants, Calling the fish to swim into my nets, And I`ve taken twelve thousand and forty-one breaths, And I`m TIRED!
