They Don'T Give a Toss
The most selfish will say others act for attention,
it’s the easiest way to dismiss a situation,
they don’t believe others suffer
and also believe themselves tougher
their inward claiming outward
not dependable and a coward
self important asking favours
never graft, slave or admit their behaviour,
they’ll lie after being caught out
and their rules are different no doubt,
create their own little world
comforted and assured
expect your help but in your need they'll only ignore,
they act as though in charge
as though head or boss,
heed my words however close you are,
leave them behind it’ll save you loss,
they just don't care,
they don't give a toss.
