Here is a verse unlike any verse |
|
To a song that you've never heard |
|
It deals with the subject that I and the authors agree |
|
Is at best absurd |
|
Love is a bore |
|
Love is a ball game without a score |
|
Love is a sail boat without a sail |
|
The lock on the candy store |
|
Asparagus without the hollandaise |
|
Plus all the petty laughs |
|
In Tennesse Williams' plays |
|
I used to love it but now it's a drag |
|
Love is a flag pole without a flag |
|
Love is the mailman without the mail |
|
A comic without a gag |
|
A soap-opera plot and lots lots more |
|
But mainly I mean love is a bore |
|
It's I'll-call-you-tomorrow |
|
It's a phone that never rings |
|
It's a sack full of sorrow |
|
Or a ride on angel's wings |
|
So just remember the next time you saw |
|
Love is an exit without a door |
|
But if you're in love you'll ignore |
|
All the things that I've said here before |
|
And you'll pray that your love |
|
Whatever he does |
|
Will come back and be |
|
The bore that he was |
|
Before! |
