Keep it on the inside
Don’t let your demons out.
Don’t let the buggers
See the whites of your eyes.
And under no circumstance
Let them see you cry.
Keep your upper lip stiff
And an impassive visage.
Your top button always fastened,
Your tie on straight.
Your hair neatly combed
Keep good time, never be late.
Keep your worries to yourself
And your mouth firmly closed,
Never let your monsters loose.
This is for the good of your own health.
And even when you’re drowning
Never make an exhibition of yourself.
