Are you sitting comfortably

Are you sitting comfortably?
Are your things set for the morning
Are the kids asleep and snoring
Is the mess that you're ignoring shoved away in some old hole
And have you sorted out the heating
Typed your notes out for your meeting
Can you see your loved ones eating
While they're scrolling through their phones

And the days and the weeks may pass us by
As we fill up every moment till we die
But even when we know we've finished all the jobs we've got
There will always be something we've forgot

Are you sitting comfortably?
Are the pots stacked into towers
Did you send your Mam some flowers
Have you totalled up the hours you've got left free in the day
Is there some left for your marriage
Drop the car off in the garage
Write the jobs that you can't manage on a list & walk away

And the days and the weeks may pass us by
As we fill up every moment till you die
But even when we know we've finished all the jobs we've got
There will always be something we've forgot
