Respect

Thank yous or pleases, will not spread diseases They can be put to use as you will It’s a guaranteed fact that politeness and tact Have never made anyone ill Civility’s free you can take it from me That it won’t cost a penny old chum Practice a while with your Sunday best smile Impoliteness makes everyone glum Good manners are things that shouldn’t have strings Every day they must be put to use Exploit etiquette you will garner respect ‘cause for rudeness there is no excuse
