Never
ever make friends with a crocodile
However much you admire his low profile
If you turn your back, in just a little
while
You'll find yourself inside that toothy
smile
Don't
wave red rags at a charging
bull
All the other kids may think it's cool
To watch him trample you down at school
-
But you won't impress them, don't act
the fool
Don't
slink alongside a hyena
pack
But if you must, then watch your back
For if they can't catch the prey they
track
You'll be the next one they attack
Don't
run in the midst of a lemming
swarm
Though you don't need to think if you
conform
When they jump off a cliff in the raging
storm
Don't leap just so you can wear their
uniform
Never
ever make friends with friends like
these
False friends are far worse than enemies
Instead befriend those he's and she's -
Who are
listeners, loyal, and like you ...
please!
