A calculus of concessions
Why do you try so hard
To be good to me
I like you the way you are
Be just as you are
Nasty and petty but truthful
Will you make concessions
Do not please
Every concession displaces
The consideration w eplace on things we value
Why do we need concessions
But will I survive if all those who love me
Make concessions
And make me indifferent
To the rules I do not follow
Why do not we build a road
On which only those people walk
Who have never broken a rule
