Ted

Any humility if he ever had it in him is long dead
His ego does barely fit in his big head
He boasts of his life's successes and of how he is good in bed
Plenty of room for self improvement one can say in Ted

With a primary going son and daughter and a beautiful wife
But he does boast of a few lovers in his life
His marriage infidelities are not of the few
Though not alone in this is not saying what is new

With a few whiskeys in at the local pub his tongue goes on the wag
Ted is a fellow who does love to brag
Of how manly he is and of his recent material success
His gullible pub mates he likes to impress

There are a few males like him in every town
Who feel they are worthy of more than local renown
Narcissistic in their ways or so they do seem
And are certainly not lacking in self esteem

On Saturday evening at the local pub
Ted a well known member of the town's football club
Stories of his latest successes to his mates he does tell
For lying a good memory does serve him well

Of the company of narcissistic people i quiickly does tire
And his sort of person i cannot admire
To be into the self in a big way in life is his thing
He should leave it to others his praises to sing.
