I'm Not Nice!
I'm so agreeable, friendly and polite -
In the manner of 'Sergeant Wilson'.
An old-time, affable English type,
Who greeted every situation with,
'That's so awfully nice!'
Yet Wilson got up his captain's nose.
Who found that superior, old-boy, pose
To be so awfully condescending.
That word, 'nice' -
Passive-aggressive,
Supercilious, hypocritical;
The lazy person's adjective,
Too vague and too bland.
So I assert that, in spite of my mien,
An amiable manner can contain great spleen.
'English insincerity', seldom says what it means -
And
I'm not NICE!
