Beware Those Who Are Not
Beware those who are not,
A little bit bias.
Or a little bit pious.
A little bit selfish,
Or a little bit standoffish.
A little bit sexist,
Or a little bit racist.
A Little bit forlorn,
Or little bit stubborn.
A little bit lazy,
Or a little bit crazy.
Beware those who are not,
A bit of a risk taker,
Or a Muck-raker.
A bit of a snob,
Or a hard case when on the job.
A bit of a joker,
Or a gambler.
A bit of a blower of trumpets,
Or a layer of red carpets.
A bit of a liar,
Or a Town Cryer.
Beware those who are not a little bit,
They will be hard to please,
Whenever there is even a little breeze.
Which makes it hard for them to care a jot,
Every time they lose the plot.
They will never cause just a little harm,
If they decide to leave the farm
And shoulder arms,
Without any qualms.
The next time you meet anyone who admits to being a little bit,
Don't throw a fit,
Just help them be a little less,
And give them a god bless.
You won't have to worry about them even throwing a little fit,
As you take a little nip
In honour of your new friendship,
When you too admit to being a little bit,
Of a misfit.
