Why do people go to the trouble,
to give other people some trouble?

Why do they bust someone's bubble,
when they know it comes back to them double?

Why do we go to the effort to hurt
someone we actually love?

Why can't we say something sweet, 'stead of curt?
A push only leave to a shove.

Why can't we treat other folks with respect?
With a smile or a kind word or two.

Treat them with honor, the way you'd expect they should act,
when they're dealing with you.

Why can't we overlook others mistakes?
We've all surely been there before.

Love and forgiveness is all that it takes,
to boot Satan's butt out the door.
