precaution's wise and practical for all

precaution's wise and practical for all

prevention keeps the illnesses at bay

though wisdom's held by few and some will fall

 

no matter, smart or dumb or short or tall

tomorrow's life is kept secure today

precaution's wise and practical for all

 

such wisdom's spread to ears by simple call

and most do understand the words they say

though wisdom's held by few and some will fall

 

will wildly run as if to chase a ball

then trip and crash in breaking bone display

precaution's wise and practical for all

 

a simple rule to keep from being mauled

yet why do some keep wisdom's words at bay?

though wisdom's held by few and some will fall

 

i've feigned to circumvent the wisdom wall

and he who followed has been snatched away

precaution's wise and practical for all

though wisdom's held by few and some will fall
