How are you?
Are you well?
If you're not
Please don't tell.
Do not say, 'I"m tired, and old,'
Do not say, 'too hot,' 'too cold'
Above all else, never say
I'm very busy. Go away.'
I've got problems
Of my own
Be like me
Leave yours at home.
When a new boss
Asks, 'How do you do?'
Say, 'Very well, thank you,
And how are you?'
Bow your head slightly and shake hands
Do like the others in this old land
Just remember, 'How do you do?'
'Very well, thank you, How are you?'
