Hump Day Humor: Think Before You Speak

Hump Day Humor: Think Before You Speak
Hosted by Mercedes Rocks

Think Before You Speak
By Neil Innes

The world is full of people with lots of things to say
Some of them are false and some are true
But there's something to be said for each and every one
So here is my advice to you

Think before you speak
Just think before you speak
A thoughtless stream of words
Is strictly for the birds
So think before you speak

Think before you speak
Just think before you speak
If you mind is in a flutter
Stuff & nonsense you will utter
Causing everyone to mutter "silly girl,
her poor little head is in a whirl"

Think before you speak
Just think before you speak

Tomorrow never comes
And it's just as true today
If you don't know what you mean
Than you don't mean what you say

So think before you speak
Just think before you speak
Give your brain the simple task
Of choosing what you ask
And think before you speak
Just think before you speak
Whattaya do... before you speak?

  1. That is a very thoughtful poem...

    I know I make the mistake of nothing thinking before I speak so often.

    Mine (or mime) is up at my place:http://bevies-place.livejournal.com/29478.html
