Just like your ears and your eyes and nose
Everyone has an opinion
Usually unyielding and strongly held
O’er our lives it holds sway and dominion
And with an opinion comes lots of advice
Whether you like it or not
You will get plenty of all sorts and kinds
Whether or not it is sought
Some of it’s meant to console and to soothe
With only the best of intentions
And some we must take with a large grain of salt
(From those people we care not to mention…)
Sometimes we wish people would learn to keep
Their sentiments close to their chests
They cannot help but let loose with their words
When silent support would be best
And yet here I am with opinion and views
Upon reading you have to endure it
It’s a habit that really we cannot shake off
And there’s nothing I know that will cure it!
