Fussbudget

Today's word is "fussbudget" ... "A fussy or needlessly fault-finding person." (Dictionary.com)

Tuff
I want it my way, or that old highway,
Cause I know what's best, more than the rest,
And I will be sadly, or maybe act badly,
Until things are changed or arranged in my favor.

A fussbudget, you think, reading this ink,
But my ideals have appeal to my frame of mind,
And whatever your druthers, or even your mother's,
They'll rarely compare fairly to mine.

So, before you fight me with all of your might,
I'd advise you to carefully check out my size,
I'm a bully most fully when I wine and complain,
And it will take all your makeup to beat me.
