Oops

OOPS!!!! When the man in charge stumbles and falls Stops all the laughter and happiness stalls He fumbles and falters as each decision he goofs’ But declare that his weakness is only an OOPS!!! When those all around him do the same thing He lashes with his tongue to give them a sting No pardon or mercy for all of his or her goofs' He gives them no right to call it an OOPS!!! He may be important in the position he holds His merciless styles from a heart that is cold The shouting and screaming as on them he swoops But he carries on with his acceptable OOPS!!! He climbs up the ladder of life’s’ success story And grabs to himself the fame and the glory But time will go on till this man with his goofs’ Will no longer be able to blame it on OOPS!!!

Unfortunately, this man is all too common. Everybody makes mistakes, but it's too bad when it's the boss, and he thinks he's the only one who has an excuse. A cancer specialist once said that the reason he isn't a surgeon is that during his residency, he was known as "OOPS!" In some cases, a goof is much more than an OOPS.
