Who Does the Work
Think of people in terms of a car
One which has been somewhat departed
Some have an engine, but no starter
So someone has to get them started
Some have starters, but no battery
They need that spark to get it going
They never can see what is needed
Unless told, they just stay unknowing
Some people are missing all these parts
They never do anything at all
You can find them in the welfare line
Like a leach, they’re enough to appall
Then there are those that have all the parts
They recognize what needs to be done
And since they are also self-starters
They’re done, while others haven’t begun
If you have something that MUST be done
Seek out and ask the busiest clerk
Why? Cause ten percent of the workers
Perform ninety percent of the work
