You

Pick yourself up and pull yourself together Take a pill or collect some lucky heather Don’t ring the doctors and waste their time Stay off the booze and the ing wine Go out more and get some air Find a friend, preferably not square Buy a dog, a cat, or such like And live in hope that it doesn’t bite Don’t hide inside and waste your life Look for a husband or maybe a wife Buy a coat or a new pair of shoes Turn off the radio, it’s always bad news Get rid of social media and the broadcasting e Read a book that will immerse and delight Turn the next left instead of the right Turn off the lamp and enjoy the dark night Look forward to Christmas or that special occasion And embrace the moment like a secret liaison Take sound advice from your trusted soles Don’t listen to losers or hopeless fools And above all of this remember one thing Be who your are and all that you bring
