"YOUR FAUX COURTESY"
Oh, you only mean so well
Of course, with the same old lines
Such familiar lies
while saving your own face
is always your best interest
That seems swell
You can pull that smile
but your eyes look empty
not much to conceal
behind that faux courtesy
Go casual
with your backhanded compliments
Lift them up before throwing them down
The extra height just adds more insult
and that’s the only injury
Then you’ll say you’re sorry
for hurting me
while at the same time
suggesting that I shouldn’t be
way too touchy
What a lame apology
You’re so phony
Everyone can see
You’re not even worth my time
not even a single round
Still, I might all you out
on your nonsensical bits
that if you go too far
and you’re not that smart,
you won’t even think about it
You’ll stay away
‘though I don’t care
that you’re such a fake!
R.
