Bad Resolutions
BAD RESOLUTIONS
Be good, be kind, help those along the way.
All good resolutions I’ve made on New Year’s Day.
Don’t do this, don’t do that, do know right from wrong.
Resolutions I have never kept for long.
Every year I’ve broken them before the end of June.
So, now I’m old and grey, I’ve changed my tune.
Only bad resolutions this new year,
Like lots of smoking and too much beer;
Using bad language and being unpleasant;
Telling rude jokes when ladies are present.
I’ll do what I want to, it’s all about me.
Oh, what a wonderful year it will be.
No, only joking, I don’t think I could.
So, once more this year, I’ll resolve to be good.
