What do you do with the mad that you feel?

    What do you do with the mad that you feel

    When you feel so mad you could bite?

    When the whole wide world seems oh, so wrong...

    And nothing you do seems very right?

    What do you do? Do you punch a bag?

    Do you pound some clay or some dough?

    Do you round up friends for a game of tag?

    Or see how fast you go?

    It's great to be able to stop

    When you've planned a thing that's wrong,

    And be able to do something else instead

    And think this song:

    I can stop when I want to

    Can stop when I wish.

    I can stop, stop, stop any time.

    And what a good feeling to feel like this

    And know that the feeling is really mine.

    Know that there's something deep inside

    That helps us become what we can.

    For a girl can be someday a woman

    And a boy can be someday a man.

I try to mentally acknowledge it and use logic and reason to see how flawed and counterproductive my anger is. That helps me set it aside.
