sycophant

Sycophant's a sicko
with a need to be appealing
and has always got the perfect word
to sum up how you're feeling.
Quite suddenly, it feels quite
good, quite right, quite
accurate in fact - spot-on!
That sycophant has quite
the eye. So soulful and
exact. You've never known
that tongue to slip, that
singing praise to put note
wrong. In one big slew
of greatest hits, that
sycophant has played
your song. This sicko
seems to be your fan,
and maybe it's gone
mutual. Not 'cause
they're such a sycophant!
Just 'cause they are
so excellent and beautiful
