After awhile, you can work on points of style....


Like a coat and tie....

A firm handshake...

A sudden look in the eye...

And an easy smile...

You have to be trusted...

By the people that you lie to...

So that when they turn their backs on you...

You'll get the chance to put the knife in...

Pink Floyd, Animals.

Very apropos, in this political climate we are living in.

3. Also apropos ...
The lyrics from "Backstabbers" (The O'Jays):

What they do:

They smile in your face

All the time they wanna take your place

The Backstabbers

(Back Stabbers)
