How to Be Utterly Perfect
Don’t mess up.
You must please everyone.
Don’t ever let yourself be upset,
and surely never be happy.
Love everyone
and be so saintly kind to all.
Hate people everyone else hates.
Discriminate those who aren’t perfect.
Be beautiful, be handsome.
if you are any less,
don’t be.
Say all the right things,
but don’t open your mouth,
and quite being so quiet.
Do everything the very best,
but don’t be brilliant,
no one likes a show off.
Surround yourself with many friends,
with all those loving friends
that hate you behind your back.
Make sure you wear what they wear.
Don’t mess up.
You must please everyone.
whatever you do,
just don’t be you.
Comments and votes would be greatly appreciated :)
