Nothing Good To Say

People who never have anything good to say, their mean, abrasive voices rub me the wrong way Everything they say sounds twisted and ugly If they hear a kind word, they utter something filthy They love to insult, they love to incite They love to spit venom, they love to bite Their words are like archers shooting poison darts They love to sling 'em, aiming straight for the heart People who never have anything good to say, their harsh, rough voices rub me the wrong way Hard speeches full of hateful words That's the kind of talking they like to hear Snide comments full of hurtful words That's the kind of talking they hold dear People who never have nothing good to say, God won't hear their evil words, should they ever need to pray

I agree RW... We were brought up with the saying, if you have nothing good to say, say nothing at all. A good motto to live by I reckon. Sweet bro /|\
