EVERYONE SHOULD BE QUICK TO LISTEN
Words & Music by Stephen Elkins

Chorus
Everyone should be quick to listen.
Everyone should be quick to listen,
Slow to speak and slow to become angry.
Everyone should be quick to listen.
Everyone should be quick to listen,
Slow to speak and that’s how it oughta’ be!

It’s easier to open your ears
If your mouth is closed.
But some are breezier than a hurricane
That blows and blows and blows!

(Repeat chorus)

It’s sensible to listen and learn,
So listen now to me!
It’s reprehensible--what?--I’ll make it clear.
Button those lips and brighter you’ll be!

(Repeat chorus)
