When Mum left home this morning
she gave me a list
A load of to do’s
and a pile of to make’s

do me a favour
do your jobs
do your best
do your hair
do your homework
do some reading
do your sums
do some shopping
do the housework
do the cleaning
do the dishes
do the ironing

make an appearance
make an attempt
make some dinner
make your bed
make the fire
and don’t make a mess
make an effort
and don’t make excuses

Well I declare
never-the-less
I stayed in bed because I felt depressed…

Well I declare,
nevertheless
I stayed in bed because I felt depressed…
There was just too many do’s and make’s
So she’s just gonna have to put up with it and make do!
Oh yeah!
