The poem pokes fun at the human nature as we shirk to take responsibility of any task unless and until it is clearly stated as our job. Right in the opening line the poet declares that it is a most important job. The way he manages the wordplay between anybody, everybody, somebody and nobody, it subtly brings across that nobody takes responsibility as he thinks that somebody will do it anyways if it is not assigned to him. 

There is an underlying humor in the second and third quatrain of the poem.  'Anybody could..surely have to do' evokes humor and satirizes the human tendency of shirking responsibility and procrastination.
