Letters to a Young Anus

Be careful how much you reveal

I got one piece of advice for you, kid

Keep your mouth shut, put a fucking lid

Upon your dissenting views

Don't roll your eyes when they face the flag

Or stitch the goddamn thing on their carry-on bag

Hold your tongue hold though your reflex to gag

There's nothing you can do

Don't laugh out loud when they vote NDP

And then act all surprised when they serve industry

The water is poison despite how hard we

Mark our little X to rearrange the deck

Damned if we don't, damned if we do

I'd just shut my mouth if I were you

Everything you say can and will

Be used against you and dumb ass until

You get that through your head with a masonry drill

It's all downhill for you

It doesn't matter what you think

It doesn't matter how you feel

It don't matter that you can't sleep

Be careful how much you reveal

Ixnay the "I told you so"s

Suppress your overwhelming urge to gloat

You can save all that shit for your suicide note

Trouble wording your last laugh?

I'll lend you my final draft

Be careful how much you reveal
