She was frigid
like a bible
when she met
her boyfriend Michael
He took her
in his zephyr
they sat like
salt and pepper
Looking out
across the city
from lovers leap
is pretty
The lights they
flick and flutter
he told her how
he loved her
Next night he called
for her
but dad protected
daughter
And told him
she was poorly
a lie was
told there surely
So Michael
felt rejected
this wasn't
quite expected
He drove off
to his local
where he felt
anti-social....
She cried all night
at missing the boy
she could be kissing
While he was
falling over
he drunk himself
back sober
And went home
in a taxi
and crashed out
in the back seat
He slept just
like a baby
which he hadn't done
just lately
He saw her
in the morning
out with his sister
Pauline
She felt all shy
and soppy
he acted cool
and cocky
He said "tonight
at Charlie's
there's gonna be a party
I'll meet you at half seven"
she visualized the heaven
If you ever
change your mind
which you do
from time to time
Never chew a pickle
with a little slap and tickle
you have to throw
the stone
to get the pool to ripple...
That night they
danced together
it looked like
love forever
He put his hand
on her leg
you should have heard
what she said
He tried again
much later
it seemed to
aggravate her
He drove home in silence
avoiding all violence
She said "lets watch
the city
from lovers leap it's pretty
I think I need the
fresh air"
She put a comb
through her hair
and while she turned
to kiss him
And very nearly
missed him
she put her hand
on his leg
He felt her tongue
in his head....
If you ever
change your mind
which you do
from time to time
Never chew a pickle
with a little slap and tickle
you have to throw
the stone
to get the pool to ripple...
