    Thou shalt not fall in love so easily.
    Thou shalt not use poetry, art or music to get into girls’ pants. Use it to get into their heads.

    Thou shalt not attend an open mic and leave as soon as you’ve done your shitty little poem or song you self-righteous prick.
    Thou shalt not return to the same club or bar week in, week out just 'cause you once saw a girl there that you fancied that you’re never gonna fucking talk to.

    There’s a second verse, but I think I’ll leave it at that.
