Children Will Listen

“Careful the things you say,
Children will listen.
Careful the things you do,
Children will see.
And learn.
Children may not obey,
But children will listen.
Children will look to you
For which way to turn,
To learn what to be.
Careful before you say,
“Listen to me.”
Children will listen.”

–Into The Woods, lyrics by Stephen Sondheim and book by James Lapine
