Read the poem now.

Grown-ups say things like:
Speak up
Don't talk with your mouth full
Don't stare Don't point
Don't pick your nose

Sit up
Say please Less noise
Shut the door behind you
Don't drag your feet 
Haven't you got a hankie? 
Take your hands out of 
your pockets

Pull your socks up 
Stand up straight 
Say thank you
Don't interrupt
No one thinks you're funny 
Take your elbows off the table

Can't you make your own
mind up about anything?
