Let's Get Cynical, Cynical...Again

 
I despise people who are two-faced liars
They pretend to be something they’re not
They get mad when the truth is too hot handle
Then change the narrative when they get caught
 
I dislike individuals who are duplicitous
They smile but talk smack behind your back
Acting nice in one place but toxic in another
Their narrative is a bunch of poppycock
 
And if they get political
It’s cynical
They’re so hypocritical
It’s miserable
I don’t want to hear that gaudy talk
Nope, I don’t want to hear that bawdy talk
 
I get irked when people are gas lighters
Stirring up things just to get attention
It’s like it gets them off in some off way
Like it gives them a…well you know what I mean
 
I am irritated by folks who are condescending
They think they are better and so they ridicule
They like to patronize and talk down to others
But when they speak the fools sound like mules
 
And when they get critical
It’s cynical
Claiming to be biblical
Threatening to get physical
I don’t want to hear that haughty talk
Nope, I don’t want to hear that potty talk
