KEEN ON CARS
 
Never get keen on cars
Don’t take your friends on holiday
Never keep milk more than four days
Never drink screw top wine
Never talk down to waitresses
Never trust men who cannot praise
Shops that say ‘quality’
Sadly will rarely be
These are the things I have to give you for certain
 
Never ever press your jeans
Don’t say ‘bonjour’ in Portugal
Or save a fortune you won’t spend
Never cook fish too long
Always regard suspiciously
People with twenty two best friends
Learn to play guitar
Find where the Maldives are
These are the only things that I know
For certain
 
Should you fall in love?
Should you stay or leave?
I can’t help you with these things
Should you fall in love?
Should you still believe?
I can’t help you
 
Never wear amusing ties
Steer clear of all astrology
Don’t give your kids outrageous names
Don’t be afraid to cry
Never be proud of doing well
Just ‘cause you’re good at video games
Know where the Maldives are
Learn how to play guitar
These are the only things that I know
For certain
