The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Chorus:
Everybody said that anybody could do
The important things somebody should do
Everybody knows that anybody could do
All the good things that nobody did
Well the preacher came to me and said what I ought to do
If I wanted to make my religion true
He'd do it himself but he really didn't have the time
He said that the duty was mine
Repeat Chorus (x2)
Well the deacon came by and said give me a hand
If you want to be going to the promised land
Here is something that I don't have time to do
So I better give it to you
Repeat Chorus (x2)
Well I'm too busy so I tell everybody
The work's got to get done by somebody
It could be done by anybody
But nobody, nobody, nobody did
Repeat Chorus (x2)
All the good things that nobody did (x2)
