Daylight savings time Once a year we turn them ahead In the spring we jump one hour And once a year we turn them back In the fall go back on the time counter Daylight savings time they call it More sunlight time for us to work Which makes the sunset very late For some in summer it's a perk The sun shines bright just past nine Then rises a short time later again More time we have to push the broom Making the fat cats more and more yen Autumn comes along and we turn it back Losing that hour we had just gained Days are shorter which means less sun That means somebody will complain Let's just go up a half hour only Keep it that way all of the time Sunset would be before nine in summer Winter jobs gain a half hour so that's fine ©Schizology Daylight savings time #poem #rhyme #daylight
