What would I do if I didn’t have you

You’re so full of wisdom that you can see

All my faults and fallacies

And splay them out in front of me

What would I do if I didn’t have you

To tell me the things I need to do

To chide me for things I didn’t do right

To pick on me and start a fight

To tell me when to clean, how to cook

How much to eat, when to exercise

How long to sleep, how to drive

Before I met you how did I ever survive

I wish I could turn you into a book

Share your wisdom with young and old

There must be others that need to be told

Who’d be willing to learn from your advice

They could keep you handy up on a shelf

Take you down if they need some help

As for me more than anything else

I wish you’d keep your wisdom to yourself

And now I feel better!
