in my next life
I will stop and smell the roses
(without being prompted)
I'll love my neighbor as myself
(it will be obvious)
I'll look before I leap
(who wouldn't?)
I'll mind my p's and q's
and pray the rosary daily
(after mass)
and respect my elders
and let well enough alone
in my next life
I'll get a tattoo
I'll do all things
(in moderation)
I'll give tit for tat
and have no regrets
in my next life
right now
I will love my neighbor
and myself
I'll look both ways before I cross
