One Bad Apple Spoils the Bunch
Belinda Richmond 1979 (Chicago)
Some people not All,
have very bad behavior
It Encourages others
to have misbehavior
Some people carry a
Negative Demeanor
To the point Positive
people are influenced
to become meaner
This is a intuition but
more like a Hunch
That one Bad Apple
Spoils the whole Bunch
It simply refers to someone
who creates problems,
Get rid of that Rotten Apple
And that will solve them
Remember these words
and take it to Mind
Those Rotton old Apples
aren't so very kind
Beware of Rotten Apples
just trust your Hunch That
One Rotten Apple
will Spoil the Whole Bunch
