Did You Ask For Sarcasm?

You may pay to be mass produced.
Using to abuse your own talents.
And then you tell me with a straight face,
I'm not the one to recognize my own skills?
Not only do I recognize yours...
But,
I will give you a clue as to how aware I am.

'Sure.
Why not?
Amuse me,
Before I fall to sleep.'

You're not going to nod through this.
Trust me.

'Please.
Whatever you do,
Do not pull out any rabbits.
Flying birds.
Or talking mice.'

I can tell you anything,
And it's on the streets.
Like you are my press agent AND...
Publicist and head the department of advertising.

'Who said what and to who did somebody else,
Say to them that I said?
You can dropp some names on me if you like.
And there wont be none!
Because I am NOT like that.'

Yes you are.
And you should be just 'that' for yourself.
Just your gossiping alone,
Has saved me at least 80% of my advertising budget...
I've would have had to spend if not for you.

So don't feel offended.
I'm saying you are great at what you do,
But focus more of that attention on yourself.
And when you do...
You will be amazed by the results you will receive.

'Why are you being so sarcastic? '

You want to argue.
This is about business and what is cost effective.
Your heart says 'Yes! '
But your head is too thick with nonsense,
To notice you have a mind.

Was that 'you' who asked for sarcasm?
Or was that more of a demand?
