GET YOUR DANDER UP

When someone annoys you

And you want to have a go

When your hackles go up

Firstly, count to ten or so

 

But if they get under your skin

And you want to let rip

And you feel your temples throb

Firstly, just bite your lip

 

But if all else has failed

And you do lose your temper

Keep your words soft and sweet

In case you have to eat them later
