The frustration felt when people only pick on your bad points.
Don’t you just hate it
When people only pick on your bad points?
All the time you try to do what’s right
And no-one bothers to point it out
You show respect and you have good manners
You try hard not to offend anyone
Then one day you lose your temper and forget your manners
When you’ve been frustrated and upset by someone
Then people remember this one bad episode
And forget your good and clean record altogether
They talk about you to their neighbours and on the phone
And forget about the fact that they’re not perfect either
If someone is mostly good
And seldom does things out of character
Give credit where it’s due
And compliment their attractive nature
I may not be perfect
After all I am of the flesh
But if I am mostly good, remember to take note of it
Because at the end of the day, we’re all only humans trying to do our best
