The Complaint

Now, I just don't understand
People who always complain
Can't they keep it to themselves?
Why can't they just refrain?

It's simply never good enough
It could always be a little better
Sometimes they even write it down
And put it in a letter

People are just way to picky
They always have to have it their way
And If it's not to their liking 
They think they have to say

"I wish you would have done it different"
Or, "It doesn't look good over there"
I mean, who do they think they are?
Do they think we really care?

Now, everyone's entitled to their opinion
But maybe it's time to abstain
I'm sorry this poem went on and on
I really didn't mean to complain
