Self Control

Self Control (1938)

And now, Smiling Uncle Smiley, your musical philosopher,

will talk to you on self-control. Here he is.

OK, Uncle Smiley. Do your stuff.

Hello, my friends.

Today, we conquer anger with a smile.

Have you ever lost your temper?

- Have you? - Who, me? Oh, no.

Well, you can control that temper, my friends.

It's very simple. Here's the secret.

Listen.

When anger rises in your soul Laugh and count to ten

Self-control should be your goal

Laugh and count to ten

Now, isn't that a wonderful philosophy?

Yeah, great stuff.

I'm gonna do it.

Laugh and count to ten

I'm so tired.

So.

This is a fine state of affairs.

Always remember to count ten when your anger rises.

One. Two. Three.

Four. Five. Six.

Seven...

For gosh's sakes. lt worked.

Self-control should be your goal

Laugh and count to ten

Go on. Scram.

And now, listen to this happy little tune.

When you're tangled up in trouble

Don't fret the livelong day For trouble's just a bubble

Just laugh your cares away
