The other day at school,
I made a Ferris Wheel.
There were so many colors,
Like pink and blue and teal.
But did it stay up and down?
No, It swayed from side to side,
So I glued the pieces down,
But that didn't make a fun ride!
It kept on getting crooked,
Then something occurred to me,
"I cannot control this wheel,
Just like people can't control me!"
Although they may try,
(And trust me, they will.)
To stop you from leaning sideways,
Either take their advice,
Or don't look twice,
Only you can control your ways.
When you are crooked,
Don't go lookin'
For someone to change your ways.
Only you can do that,
So get up, take your hat,
And keep on living your days.
