My Duty
Each man has his duty
To each his own
Do your duty to the best
It is important to never slack off
Because it is your duty to make this a better home
My duty is to learn
McFarland High has taught me well these past 12 years
But now it is my turn
It is my time to teach the next generations
Teach the young and old
The wise and the educated
The willing and the resistant
It is my duty to teach
My duty is to care
Care not only for my body
But care for my family, friends, and foes
I must also care for this planet
For this planet is my home
It will be home to my children and their children and so on
I will do what it takes to care for our world
Because it is my duty to care
My duty is to smile
Smile at all the things in life
Smile at the small things
And smile at the bigger things
If I smile, I hope you will smile too
And if you smile, then somebody else will smile
Therefore, it is my duty to set an example
Your duty in life is to figure out what your duty is
Once you have done this, everything else won't matter
Then you can help others find their duty
And you will feel complete inside
Because you know you have done your duty
And it is the next person's turn
