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've 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.
