Petty people

Do not be fooled, these people know how to act
They will measure the salt in your tears with tact
Must be something you said
A debt that must be paid
Well calculated vengeance, they will exact

Their left hand is the rope they’ll use to hang you
If they’re unhappy, there’s not a drop of blue
They shall not forget
In wait they’ll cast their net
To draw your blood when their pettiness is due
