My favorite language is sarcasm Have you ever noticed how subtly it can be used? And how much less of an idiot you feel when you can say that you've given a little snigger at a snide comment It keeps you in the loop It lacks the grace and elegance of Spanish or French But for all it's supposed pushing people away from other people I've just found that it brings a select group of the jaded Into being the best of friends You can't ask a girl for her hand Or tell her you love her With such a tone as a sarcastic jibe It doesn't do to tell someone How beautiful they are If they question your meaning And still I love the musical sound of isolating the idiots from the cynically inclined Because it brought me closer to you
