I love the way
You have to
Check everything
To make sure it's right

You have to be sure
That you don't say
Anything to offend
Or make anyone angry

You have to make
Sure of the spelling
To make sure
That everything's alright

Because, if you don't
Check what you do
Someone's going to complain
About the things that you do
