America the Lazy


America, home of the free,

Might not always what it will be.

Sitting around and being lazy,

Will make all citizens go crazy. 

People are never go to work,

Not even effort to be a sales clerk.

Have the government provide them with cash,

They would do it all over again in a flash.

It is our duty to work hard,

Even if that means mow our own yard.

We need to try our best in all things,

So we can have our own ceilings.

America needs us to try,

So that we do not spend the rest of our lives asking why?
