Mr Perfect

To know you is to love you. You brighten my whole day. Just what I'd do without you, I really couldn't say. Without you to guide me, I'd not know what to do. I'd prob'ly think I was okay, I'm lucky I've got you. Without you to point it out, I'd miss most of my faults. I'd probably just vegetate, Eat chocolates and drink malts. You tell me what to say and when, And what I should wear; You're quite a find I must admit, That just shows you care. You're so well informed and smart, Not at all like me, I couldn't do without you, I really must agree. Always there to lend a hand, With "helpful criticism". I'm so dull and dumb I miss, Your clever witicisms. You really ought to leave me, But that just isn't you; Because you're so long-suffering, And your heart is true. You're so good to stay right here, And take such care of me; Showing me where I fall short, 'Thout you where would I be. You're such a little honey bun, You fill my life with laughter. The last time I had this much fun, They'd just put back my bladder. (Some people are so busy correcting the faults of their family, friends and neighbors they forget to take stock of their own. People like that don't get invited back very often.)

It's Satire my friend. Satire is comical derision used to expose and denounce vice or folly. God Bless, JB
