The One With Many Friends

The one with many friends is one not without foes This is how humanity works one does have to suppose There is no shortage of critics in any town For to drag the wealthy and popular down Everyone does not like you why otherwise pretend The best friend of my enemy is not my friend Those who do not like you may be of the few But this is not saying anything that is new You may be a person that many admire And of singing your praises never seem to tire But true to their form the knockers of the town Find pleasurein their words on dragging you down Not everyone sees the beauty in a rose The one with many friends is not one without foes With the majority in your town not everyone does agree This is how it is and how it always will be.
