Always Be Exact

1
The words I say, the things I do
Must always be exact;
I’m learning to be accurate,
Not to exaggerate;
Oh, I must be exact,
And stick to just the facts.
Precise, each time I put things back,
Or arrange my books in stacks.

“Two cups of flour” means two (not three!);
“Not more than two” means one (or two!);
I’ll eat my breakfast, stop the fuss
So I won’t miss the bus!
