Bite Your Neighbour's Dog
Life is full of “upsies” and “downsies”
When your “upsies” outnumber your “downsies”
You'll know coz you'll go around singing all day
If the reverse is true, you'll bite your neighbour's dog
Also best to hide all the knives
Lock your medicine cabinet filled with pills
And put the key in your pocket
You can't be held criminally responsible
For setting fire to the mall
Or running amok through the streets
Here's hoping “upsies” are winning your battle
It's been a while since I've called for my Mommy
So there's still hope for me!
