When life has dealt you an unfair hand
And you feel like you've really been cheated
Don't get irate, spit teeth and curse fate;
Stay calm, chill out, and be seated.
When the Devil's shat in your laundry bin
And you feel you've been unfairly treated
Don't warble and bleat, stamping your feet;
Stay calm, chill out, and be seated.
When you've give it a try, and it's all gone awry
And you feel like you haven't competed
Don't ponder, regret, you'll just get upset;
Stay calm, chill out, and be seated.
When you've give it your all, and held yourself tall
And still wound up getting defeated
Don't let it show that you've taken a blow;
Stay calm, chill out, and be seated.
When you've gone in headlong, and done it all wrong
And now know you should have retreated
Don't sit and lament, over time poorly spent;
Stay calm, chill out, and be seated
