A Christmas Prayer...If Only They Thought?


If Only People didn't drink and drive,
If only they used their head,
If only they thought of the consequences,
There would be a lot less dead!

If only people weren't selfish!
If only they had a care!
If only they thought of others,
The others would still be here.

If only people saw sense!
If only they'd stay at home!
If only they'd got a taxi…!
And left the car at home!

If only they used their brain!
If only drunks had a care,
If they only knew the score,
The dead would still be here.
