Anyone almost be a knocker.
Its easier to tear down than to build;
Then why not neighbor, try to be booster?
With pessmsts the worlds already filed.
You can't expect that things will always suit you.
In melancholy judgment, then, you sit?
No. Better far to help along little;
Better far to boost little bit
1t neverpays to join the anvil chorus,
Or spread unkind reports about your town;
Many there are to hamper and retard it,
Who do their level best to run it down.
What if our town has it's little failings?
1t has its good points, also, hasn't it?
Then why not to the wheel adjust your shoulder?
Why not get out and boost little bit?
A churlish dog may bay the moon in augush
The frog must croak, for nature willed it SO;
The mule was placed on earth to do the kicking
CAS- any good zoology will show
The good Lord has provided for the knocking,
So if wider groove you long to fit
Adopt this as a motto, "BE BOOSTER
And then get out and boost q litte-bit.
