The Procrastination Song (Original)

I should really have been studying when I made this!!!
It's 3.30 am now...
Everything in this video is made at home by me (except of course for the
Nalts (at 00:38) and Weird Al (at 3:03) video on my computer screen)
I hope you have as fun watching this as I had making it!

To avoid spoilers, first try to listen before you read the lyrics :-)

This is a song about something evil...

Procrastination.

Don't you shift that job
Go to study, clean your room
If you do nothing useful
You will only end up sad
Oh just fulfill your duties
Don't make your life so hard

[Chorus]
Procrastination is bad
Procrastination makes you sad
Don't sit, don't wait...
Or else you will be late

Don't do procrastination
It will lead you nowhere
When you miss all your deadlines
People will get very mad
Never put off until tomorrow
What you can do today

[Chorus]

What I'm trying to say here is: just take my advise and your life will be a lot better.
You won't be that poor jobless loser, who's sitting in the mess and the dirt, locked up in his mothers basement, playing
computer games all day, having a long beard with pieces of leftover pizza that he ordered for breakfast, ..., lunch and dinner
while his study books are lying under a pile of dust and the only friends he has are either online or fictional.

No...

You won't do that kind of stuff anymore if you simply stop procrastinating.
You won't be watching tv and youtube all day.
You won't be playing the guitar all the time.
You know, even this song it wouldn't exist without procrastination!
...
Oh, hold on a minute!

[Chorus x3]
