Connected, Body and Soul

I don't like him. He's just not nice
  Oh, really? Not your cup of spice?

What did he do that was so bad?
  He told me I have a mean old dad

So I told him to scram, to go away
  But before he did, he had more to say

O.K. I hear you. That man sure was mean
  Yet blowing him off will not solve a thing

We and our fellows are connected body and soul
  If a limb needs repair, that's our shared goal

So, tell him his words hurt you, but you don't want to fight
  You just wish he'd see your dad in a new light

Help this man, befriend him, 'til his soul once again is right
  Then he too will love your dad, thanks to your care and insight
