Lessons of Urbanity

Cultivate good manners for your bad examples if you don't want your peers to point fingers at you
Cover your base instincts with a sheepskin
The habit doesn't make the monk, but it gives the impression
Show yourself in public as cordial, attentive, considerate, polite, courteous, polite, solicitous, and helpful
And when you mess up, please decorate the dung
So that, admired, the world says
How beautifully the gentleman poops!
Take my advice and start taking lessons of urbanity
Have a smile ready when you face the blow
Distribute bad news wrapped as gifts
Tell the world with flowers that you will devastate the planet
Pass death sentences, but with good handwriting
Swear to God and lie convincingly
Make people line up, but without raising your voice
Because at first glance, the gloss of your insides is not visible
Appearances deceive for your benefit
Take my advice and start taking lessons of urbanity
Cultivate good manners to hide your sins
Dress your silk monkey and check the result
That you will be whatever -scum of mortals- a perfect heartless person
But with good manners
Insult with education, steal delicately, murder cleanly, and deceive with distinction
Slander without being rude, betray with elegance, perfume your disgust with exquisite urbanity
