Sorry,I have to go but this is my stop
Wait,is that my money you just dropped?
Somebody call 911 it's the cops
Helping never helps'n'taking shortcuts always makes me late
Always seem to be in a hurry to wait
Struggling for something that just isn't my fate
How did I get egg on my face eating cake?
Oh my God...What the Devil is going on?
Picking up dog poop,while your dog shits on my lawn
Got so busy being bored,hardly had time to yawn
So now it's time for me to sleep because a new day has dawned

Nice,
Irony can be pretty ironic sometimes. I like the “in a hurry to wait” and “not my fate” lines.
I got a good chuckle out of this one and it rhymed very well.

Hi,
I agree with Bill, I especially like the tie between L1 & L5.
Please pardon my indulgence here and for taking a liberty with your poem but I thought I might play with the line breaks:
sorry,
i have to go but this is my stop.
wait,
is that my money
you just dropped?
somebody call 911
(it's the cops)
helping never helps
'n' taking shortcuts always makes me late
always seem to be in a hurry
to wait
struggling for something
that just isn't my fate
how did i get egg on my face
eating cake?
oh my God...what the Devil is going on?
picking up dog poop,
while your dog shits
on my lawn
got so busy being bored, hardly had time to yawn
so now it's time for me to sleep because it’s a new day, a new dawn
A great poem for this lazy Saturday afternoon.
