Oh, temptation stay away
I have too many sins today
anger frustration, fears and doubts
time and patience will sort it out
except when there is a hint of blame
and I am treated with disdain

Have no fear I once was young
respect and patience coated my tongue
who am I kidding? I like those
whose disdain my icy words froze
needed to learn how to get along
with the long-term customer throng

Oh, temptation go away
I deserve a holiday
