Knock to the Head

People hear me talk, nod and agree
Then say the opposite, expecting the same from me
People ask me for advice, I give them my take
Then they do what they want, expecting me to correct their mistake

Sometimes I think people need a knock to the head
Maybe shake up a few brain cells that aren't dead
Just thinking of some people fills me with dread
Just put me on a beach with a pina colada instead

People never listen, think they know it all
All you can do is wait for them to fall
People are all greedy, no give and all take
But karma can be a bitch, and of that there is no mistake

Sometimes I think people need a knock to the skull
I think some people need google, or a help line to pull
Just thinking of some people makes my ego feel ten feet tall
Not because I'm big, but because they are so small

Don't see the sense in wasting my breath
Lord knows it won't keep them from hounding me to death
They don't want my opinion, just want me to tell them they're right
I just want to go to bed and call it a night

Sometimes I think people need a knock to the head
Sometimes I think I should deal with animals instead
They greet you when you get home, nothing is said
They don't expect miracles, they just wait to be fed

Author's Note
First of all, I don't think it's ever a good idea to knock someone in the head, but that doesn't mean I don't want to.
