Sorted

My filing cabinet’s in a mess
I’ll have to sort it out
it's causing me some real distress
what's it all about?
some of it is readily filed
dated stamped and easy
a lot of it I have to say
isn’t quite so breezy

but if I work hard through the night
I’m sure it will get done
I’ll stamp and date and sort and shred
then neatness I’ll have won
and now it's day I’m nearly ready
stacks of neatpiled paper
there's just one thing I cannot file
I’ll have to do it later

so now I’m here with this old letter
wondering where it goes
I know it still must be quite useful
it's saved. So, I suppose
I’ll just keep it here with me
in the pocket of my shirt
file it here next to my heart
I’m quite sure that can't hurt.
