Serenity of Entropy (For Mothers Everywhere)

Wake up the crack of dawn, Mow the lawn, Get the mail, Come inside and be carefree, Bask in the serenity of entropy, Wake up the kids to clean their rooms, Wash the car and walk the dog, Lay out all day the back yard sod, Get in the car and be carefree, Bask in the serenty of entropy, Check the clock and plant the shrubs, Paint the house and wash the tub, Vacuum the bathroom and seep the halls, Then get in the shower and be carefree, Bask in the serenity of entropy, Put on your clothes and go to work, Run to the office, you're 10 minutes late, Attribute your tardiness to traffic or fate, Then sit down at your desk and be carefree, Bask in the serenity of entropy, Go home and cook dinner, Then eat and around ten, Go upstairs, collapse, and ward off his pass, The man who approaches with hair on his back, Then ask yourself why did it have to be me? That basks in the serenity of entropy?
