Self Control

(1) Once I had a know in my shoe

And it would not come loose;

I tried and tried and pried and pried

But it would not come loose.

I got so mad I kicked the door

And stubbed my little toe.

Oh! If only I had learned

A little bit of self control.

Chorus: Self control is just controlling myself;

It's listening to my heart and doing what is smart.

Self control is the very best way to go;

So I think that I'll control myself.

(2) I never liked to brush my teeth;

I wished that I could stop.

I had more time for candy bars

And drinking soda pop.

But soon my teeth would hurt so bad

From all the cavities.

Oh, me! I had to learn some self control

So that wouldn't happen to me.
