Understatement
A person who's really secure
Is usually one who's demure
He isn't a boaster
With the most of the most-er
The kind we all loathe to endure
The types we most highly rate
Are those types who most understate
They have more appeal
'Cause they don't wheel and deal
Like those others, so easy to hate
Understating, with charm of it's own
Never sounds at all overblown
Never sends you home gagging
Like those braggarts when bragging
Understating sets the right tone
