Last Minute Person

Being a last minute person,
Isn't a very good thing,
But some kids think it's cool,
You get into the habit and find out,
That it's not so great,
And breaking it is the hardest thing of all,
Breaking a habit takes forever,
This one takes twice as long and it
hurts so much,
Because it feels as if the energy is never there,
And I know it's hard to break this habit,
Of being a last minute person,
Don't try bribery or blackmail
Because no-one can break it but you,
I know, I've tried it.
