From those who admire you and your praises do sing
About yourself you never learn anything
But those who criticize you in a constructive way
Can help you to improve as a person if you heed of what you they do say
But for most of us our egos are bigger than ourselves 'twould appear
Since only the nice things of self from others most wish to hear
And they are not scarce and not hard to find
The World is not short of the self absorbed kind
Even the most humble have egos is how it seems to be
But when the ego outgrows the head it is in it does seem to me
That the owner of the ego becomes egotistical and even the mildest of constructive criticism cannot bear
And sad to think that such people are no longer rare
And it is true from those who admire you and your praises do sing
About yourself you never do learn anything.
