Are you spewing words of war
Of sharing words of peace?
Would your demise be a surprise
A tragedy or release?
What did you learn from Tom and Jerry
When you were just a tot?
Did the story have a message
Which you, alas, forgot?
The happy, joyful words you say
Can brighten your hopeful today
And bring you joy tomorrow
To lighten all your sorrow
But it's tempting to forget
Your enemies, and yet, and yet
The danger is if you are blind
They creep up striking from behind
So if they're dead, just shake your head
And tut and tutu, the poor dead mutt
He came to a sticky end
And lost the chance to be my friend
But watch out for others just the same
With different or similar names
Now that you understand their games
You can decline to board their trains
When you are bored, feeling ignored
Just go where welcome is assured
But keep feet firmly on the ground
And whilst you're walking, look around
So, let your worries go away
But listen to what people say
Be sure you stay aware each day
Whether at work or just at play
Do not engage in jokes and pranks
Like pointing guns nor robbing banks
Don't pull hair, chairs, play dares, nor poke
So your life stays a happy joke.
