Love? Really?

This lady and I...

are getting laid...

perhaps for a moon...

perhaps for a day...

our marriage will stand...

as such marriages do...

to the end of time...

or the end of the tune...

where they pop the balloons...

you know...

those rubber ones...

it's been nice...

it's been keen...

it's been fun...

but I've seen...

something better I like...

what...

you're having a thing...

there's a pill for that...

well...

it wasn't me dear...

you messing around...

we can't have that...

I'm out of here...

time...

the boy is fine...

a toe headed twerp...

whose outlook on life...

seems a little bit warped...

he was born to a child...

in the back of a van...

lived a few years...

with the orphanage man...

kinda wild and crazy...

incorrigibly lazy...

really cool...

if you know what I mean...

went hard...

for an older woman...

at least fourteen...

shacked up...

and shaggin' by eleventy...

these are the times...

that nobody cares...

all the kids fec'n...

and shav'n their hairs...

and they bitch'n and grip'n...

they all been forgotten...

it was somebody else...

made the whole world rotten...
