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 waitin' makes me curious

And I'd love the change
Should something strange begin

Well I went along my merry way
And I never stopped to reason
I should have known there'd be a price to pay
Some day

I give myself very good advice
But I very seldom follow [bad word] it
Will I ever learn to do the things I should?

I went along my merry way
And I never stopped to reason
I should have known there'd be a price to pay someday

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