I disagree with you: I’m not surprised;
I’m not embarrassed – he’s a brute and boor,
but really, bullying requires more.

He’s ignorant, too dull to be advised,
and though his acts and words make us heartsore,
I disagree with you – I’m not surprised,
I’m not embarrassed, he’s a brute and boor.

That wasn’t bullying! It was despised,
but no coercive force was played, for sure.
An interrupter tried to take the floor.
I disagree with you: I’m not surprised;
I’m not embarrassed – he’s a brute and boor,
but really, bullying requires more.

(English Madrigal)
