Too Much On My Plate

Too much on my plate!

Why don't you sit outside,

Put on some fine clothes,

And wait?

Too much on my plate!

Don't lean against me

I need to satisfy my palate,

I need to become a great.

Too much on my plate,

Why I still don't gain weight?

Dwindling by the day

Why do I myself, hate?

Too much on my plate.

I shall not ignore you — my teammate

We shall eat together from now,

For it is never too late.
