Don't put off 'til tomorrow
What you should do today.
That road leads to sorrow,
To regret, if you delay.

Do it now!
When the thought hits you.
Do it now!
Don't put off: Do!

Leave it to another,
You will live to regret.
If you can't be bothered
The guilt will make you fret.

Do it now!
How sweet the day.
Do it now!
No joy comes in delay.

It only takes a minute
To write that little note.
Put all your love within it.
They will smile at what you wrote.

Do it now!
Place that phone call.
Do it now!
Before the sunlight falls.

Spread some love and sunshine.
Joy is easily shared.
Do it now, please be kind.
Do it now, show you cared.
