Busy bee
That’s what you are
Always trying to invest your time

Even on weekends and public days
You are always out of reach

Your beloved girlfriend’s been complaining
All the time
She says you put your work first
Before her

Your family members are always
Looking out for you during family gatherings
Because you are never around

Oh busy bee!
Is that the legacy you want to leave?
Do you want to be a workaholic all your life?
Or it’s that you are so committed to your work

All your friends are complaining
They grumble whenever
You don’t show up at their parties
They feel you’ve neglected them

But I know you haven’t
I know that deep down
You are just caught up with
Doing what you like doing best

I don’t really blame you
Cos you are working
With so much passion

Keep on keeping on
Keep on growing strong
Keep on keeping busy
Busy bee

Cos you make the world
A better place......
