Practice What You Preach

You say you've trampled through the village where the grapes of wraith are stored You say if you live by the sword, you will die by the sword A stitch in time saves nine What's yours is yours and what's mine is mine I'm still a student so will you please teach Set the example and Practice What You Preach You must go through hell before reaching heaven Always believe in lucky number seven A rabbit's foot and horseshoe bring fortune and fame If you take the credit for the good, for the bad you must also take the blame I'm still a student, so will you please teach Set the example and Practice What You Preach Do as I say, not as I do Not all rules apply to me , but all rules apply to you Don't worry about others, just worry about you In the end everyone gets their just due No one is invited to play in every game Now you can put faces with names I believe your philosophy is out of reach Set the example and Practice What You Preach
