If I could point out one bad vice
Which we all should think of twice
The tongue is like a butcher's knife
It cuts our feelings slice by slice
*:ˇ..ˇ:**:ˇ..ˇ:**:ˇ..ˇ:**:ˇ..ˇ:*
Like a deadly serpent's sting
The tongue is a most deadly thing
With cruel words it shed our tears
It cares not what pain it brings
*:ˇ..ˇ:**:ˇ..ˇ:**:ˇ..ˇ:**:ˇ..ˇ:*
It does not know how to be kind
The razor's tip sinks where it finds
To our tender feelings it is blind
Caring not what's left behind
*:ˇ..ˇ:**:ˇ..ˇ:**:ˇ..ˇ:**:ˇ..ˇ:*
From these offenders best keep far
Do not leave your doors ajar
For with their tongues they leave scars
So bolt up tight and put up bars
