Don'T

Don’t

Don’t say that I can when I can’t

Don’t say I will when I won’t

Don’t say I shall when I shall not

Don’t say I would if I wouldn’t

Don’t expect more than you see

Don’t wait for results you won’t receive

And don’t blow up when you don’t

Don’t say it was my fault

Don’t tell me you didn’t know

Don’t have high expectations

And I won’t say I told you so
