A Walking Thesaurus

D'ya know any people who are always right Are they annoying creatures or what? Wonder who made them this walking thesaurus They sure make my blood run hot Love to poke holes in what they're saying Proving that they ain't infallible Jump at any chance to prove these guys wrong To be right every time is impossible Engaging these people in normal conversation Is frustrating and hard on the psyche You wanna scream and yell naughty words And physically harm them, by crikey Best thing to do is just try to remain calm Dispute everything they are saying Drives them batty and they blow their stack As around the issue you go skating A naughty and devious man I am Get a chuckle out of seeing 'em rage Sure serves 'em right for being so arrogant Must be the attention they crave!

Very wise things you be saying, Jack, it like talking to Mr, Dillon. If'n be he was something of a poet. Love reading your wisdom, through poetry with sprinkles of humor to take the edge off, Jack. Thanks for a good read today, Bill
