The biggest bullies rarely scream
They don’t need to remind you of their power Because they know And you know And they know you know That they can take you out without using any muscle Without pounding their chest Without raising their voice Others do their business for them They don’t even need to ask It would bother their conscience It’s just understood What happens to those who get in their way The biggest bullies are often gentlemen In soft clothes With soft voices Humble smiles And deadly power
