Lie down.
Read.
That little thing in your mouth
That little thing known as the tongue
That little thing can start trouble
That little thing knows how to bother
Lord have mercy!
Read.
A book can train the tongue
A book can give you courage
A book makes people listen
Has the breeze arrived?
Let it upon your face
Let it calm you;
Be calm.
Read.
