the village gossip annoyed me


Miss Busy Body...blabber Mouth

her name was...
Miss Busy Body...blabber mouth
her job was to speak ill
of everyone in the neighbourhood
woe unto you
if you failed to suck up to her
your name would be maligned
faster than the speed of light

she thinks
she is miss perfect
that the world revolves around her
Miss Busy Body...blabber mouth
sticking her nose in other people's business
while turning a blind eye
to her own mess...
ready to ruin another reputation

surely...
Miss Busy Body...blabber mouth
there is so much trouble in the world today
we have war in the middle east...famine in Africa
these are areas into which you can channel your energy
instead of preaching hatred,jealously and envy
think about it...as you keep your mouth shut

Miss Busy Body...blabber mouth
an expert at ruining reputations
you speak ill of others
are you sure they don't speak ill of you?
you need to change your ways
or you will end up sad and alone
this is a message for you
there is nothing else left to say

Mike, we have such people right here in my small town in the USA. They are everywhere. I love the way you tell this busy body exactly what she is and how she affects people . This is so good!
