Tricky fellows

D'ya ever meet a tricky fella,
what even tried to trick ya?
A pin-striped, moustached used-car sella
who tried to see how thick ya're?

  or ever met the Principal
whoose principles were lacking?
Good job if you were sensible
and sent the phony packing.

D'ya ever meet the retail man
'ooz service seems immaculate?
Be fooled not by the common plan,
"I'll just check out the back for it"!!

There's also the comedian
whoose routine is "on fire";
but funny is just his facade,
he's living as a liar.

Watch out for tricky fella's.
There's quite a few you see.
You might wind up as one yourself.
It happened once,
To me!
