Very good advice

I give myself very good advice
But I very seldom follow it
That explains the trouble that I'm always in

Be patient, is very good advice
But the waiting makes me curious
And I'd love the change,
Should something strange begin?

I'm sure that I know right from wrong.
And I have the best intentions.
Life should be such a merry song
But there is where

I give myself very good advice
But I very seldom follow it.
Will I ever learn to do the things I should?

Be patient, is very good advice
But the waiting makes me curious
And I'd love the change,
Should something strange begin?

You go along your merry way
And you'll never stop to reason
But that will be your price
That you must pay someday

I give myself very good advice
But I very seldom follow it.
Will I ever learn to do the things I should?
