Many
will be shocked to find, When the Day of Judgment nears,
That
there’s a special place in heaven set aside for volunteers.
Furnished
with big recliners, satin couches and footstools;
No
eager team that needs a coach, no bazaar and no bake sale.
There
will be nothing to staple, not one thing to fold or mail.
Telephone
lists will be outlawed, but a finger-snap will bring,
Cool
drinks and gourmet dinners and rare treats fit for a king.
You
ask, who’ll serve these privileged few and
Work
for all they’re worth?
Why,
all those who reaped the benefits and not one
Volunteered on Earth.
