Be Careful

Be careful not to stub your toe
Be careful choosing who you owe
Be careful how you watch the light
Be careful going out at night
Be careful as to who you hire
Be careful moreso as to who you fire
Be careful not to swim too deep
Be careful to look before you leap.

Be careful to always wash your fruit
Be careful for which teams you root
Be careful when you’re running late
Be careful considering your fate
Be careful when playing with your toys
Be careful out-drinking the boys
Be careful when the waves are crashing
Be careful when your teeth are gnashing.

So many warnings in this life you see
So many trials, so many fears
This modern day’s full of misery
Pay good heed to your eyes and ears.

Be careful when you eat your lunch
Be careful when you throw a punch
Be careful when you laugh too loud
Be careful when you act too proud
Be careful choosing who to vote
Be careful how you sail your boat
Be careful how you drive your car
Be careful not to go too far.

Yes be careful how you give your word
Be careful insulting the classroom nerd
Be careful when talking to your boss
Be careful as you pour on hot sauce
Be careful what it is you wish for
Be careful opening the swinging door
Be careful the letters that you write
Be careful with the enemies you fight.
