Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Have you ever been so mad you get tears?
Have you ever been so angry that your head gets hot?
Feels like steam shooting out your ears?
Everybody feels that way now, and then everybody out there get′s mad
Here's a little trick that may help you feel better
You may not end up feeling so bad
Breathe out
Breathe in
Take some time, count to 10
Now you′re ready to begin to cool it down
(Think about it) Now you're cooled down, it might be easier to thin
(Think about it)
Things might not feel so bad
(Talk about it) Talking 'bout it might help you feel better
Might make you feel so mad
It′s hard not to be angry when you break your favorite thing
It′s tough when you spill stuff too
For those times when it feels like everything's going wrong
Feels like it′s just raining on you, yeah
Oh, here's what you can do
Breathe out
Breathe in, take some time, count to 10
Now you′re ready to begin to cool it down
Now you're ready to begin to cool it down
