Compliments 

THERE’S NOTHING LIKE A COMPLIMENT
TO MAKE A PERSON SMILE
IT TENDS TO LIFT THEIR SPIRITS
MAKES THEM HAPPY FOR A WHILE

COMPLIMENTS CAN DO MANY THINGS
TO FLATTER OR PROVE A POINT
CAN BE USED TO GAIN ADVANTAGE
OR TO THE WORTHY ONES ANOINT

YOU CAN SAY, “YOU LOOK NICE”
OR, “YOU HAVE A PRETTY SMILE”
“HAVE YOU LOST SOME WEIGHT?”
NO ONE’S FEELINGS WILL YOU RILE

COMPLIMENTS CAN ALSO BE DANGEROUS
INDEED THEY CAN BE A TRAP
“YOU’RE NOT AS UGLY AS YOU COULD BE”
COULD GET YOUR FACE SLAPPED!

FOR IT IS INDEED A COMPLIMENT
AT LEAST IT SEEMS THAT WAY TO ME
BUT I CAN NEVER FIND A WOMAN
WHO WITH ME THEY WILL AGREE!
