Whose Job Is It? (Rainbow Rap)

Once upon a time, there were four people.

Their names were EVERYBODY, SOMEBODY, NOBODY, and ANYBODY.

There was an important job to be done and EVERYBODY was asked to do it. EVERYBODY was sure SOMEBODY would do it.

ANYBODY could have done it, but NOBODY did it. When NOBODY did it, SOMEBODY got mad because it was EVERYBODY’S job.

EVERYBODY thought ANYBODY could do it., but NOBODY realized that EVERYBODY wouldn’t do it.

It ended up EVERYBODY blamed SOMEBODY when NOBODY did what ANYBODY could have done in the first place.

The moral of this story is that when you find yourself saying "SOMEBODY" should pick up the trash on the trail/make a sign to mark a kitchen/organize the parking lot/dig a new shitter...

Remember: YOU are SOMEBODY !!! Isn’t that what you’ve always wanted to be?
