Loudest Voice in the Room

Exclaiming with volume does not make you right A whisper of logic is all it should take Compassion for others is not a mistake Tearing at people, nasty and mean, bombastic and red-faced hurling your malice Your opinion's not right just because its the loudest The loudest voice in the room If you really were as smart as you like to brag that you are You wouldn't need to provoke, to prod and to poke You could calmly just state what you you're thinking Because the smartest of folks can just look at themselves and admit "you know I could be mistaken" Have you ever felt that you were mistaken? The loudest voice in the room Can you talk without spite? Can you just listen? Smart-assed remarks and mean-spirited comments do not prove you right That's just your sycophants The loudest voice in the room
