Lesson In Finesse
I am going to teach you a lesson
A lesson in finesse
What? Coming from me, it will be the first
But I'll give it to ya
First, don't answer a question with a question
That - I do that a lot
Think you do too
It's human nature
Where did you go today?
Why do you want to know?
Did you do that?
I wonder who did it
Now when it comes to problem solvers
Take it from me
I am the pro at it
First see where the problem is
And go straight to the source
Distinguish it
Put water on it
What? Yeah - cool - my friend
Douse yourself with some cold water
You'll get a clear head
Unless the problem is yourself
Then I cannot help you there
You'll handle it on your own
Thus you be
Another pointer - always point it out
Yeah - who doesn't want to know?
Tell the truth, my friend
You'll make some friends and a few enemies
You'll learn to talk plainly and truthfully
Which the bottom line is better for everyone
Who asks you anyway?
That's it
That's my lesson in finesses
Come join us tomorrow
As there will be a few chairs here
Waiting for you
Hear?
