Favor

If you want to get a favor done
By some obliging friend
And want a promise safe and secure
On which you may depend

Don't go to him who always has
Much leisure time to plan,
If you want your favor done
Just ask the busy man

The man with leisure never has
A moment he can spare
He's always putting off
Until his friends are in despair

But he whose every waking hour
Is crowded full of work
Forgets the art of wasting time
He cannot stop to shun

So when you want a favor done
And want it right away
Go to the man who constantly
Works twenty hours a day

He'll find a moment somewhere
That has no other use
And help you while the ideal man
Will be busy framing an excuse
