Think Before You Speak
|
|
The world is full of people with lots of things to say
|
Some of them are false and some are true
|
But there's something to be said for each and every one
|
So here is my advice to you
|
|
Think before you speak
|
Just think before you speak
|
A thoughtless stream of words
|
Is strictly for the birds
|
So think before you speak
|
|
Think before you speak
|
Just think before you speak
|
If you mind is in a flutter
|
Stuff & nonsense you will utter
|
Causing everyone to mutter "silly girl,
|
her poor little head is in a whirl"
|
|
Think before you speak
|
Just think before you speak
|
|
Tomorrow never comes
|
And it's just as true today
|
If you don't know what you mean
|
Than you don't mean what you say
|
|
So think before you speak
|
Just think before you speak
|
Give your brain the simple task
|
Of choosing what you ask
|
And think before you speak
|
Just think before you speak
|
Whattaya do... before you speak?
