IT CAN'T BE DONE, by ANONYMOUS First Line: The man who misses all the fun Last Line: The world would sleep if things were run / by men who say 'itcan't be done' Variant Title(s): It Can Be Done | |||
The man who misses all the fun Is he who says, "It can't be done." In solemn pride he stands aloof And greets each venture with reproof. Had he the power he'd efface The history of the human race; We'd have no radio or motor cars, No streets lit by electric stars; No telegraph nor telephone, We'd linger in the age of stone. The world would sleep if things were run By men who say "It can't be done." | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest... |
