A New You
Take down the old calendar
And put up the one that's new
While making the resolution
To be a better you
Each and every coming month
Of the twelve that are ahead
Can be used to improve yourself
If you use them wisely instead
Improve yourself physically
Intellectually and emotionally, too
Each new day is an opportunity
To mold an improved you
Smile and laugh and cry each day
Be charitable to your fellow man
You have the power to improve yourself
If you stick to this simple plan
