When sometimes you are feeling important
Sometimes when your ego's in bloom,
Sometimes when you take it for granted,
You're the qualified one in the room.
Sometimes when you feel that your going
Would leave an unfillable hole,
Just follow these simple instructions
And see how it humbles your soul.
Take a bucket and fill it with water
Put your hand in it up to your wrist,
Pull it out and the hole that's remaining
Is a measure of how you'll be missed.
You may splash all you please as you enter
You can stir up the water galore,
But stop and you will find in a minute
It looks quite the same as before.
The moral of this quaint example
Is to do the best that you can
Be proud of yourself, but remember,
There is no indispensable man.
