first one--it's a shock
|
a second helping--not good enough
|
third time lucky--and you've arrived!
|
if you have any doubts then try once more...
|
|
maybe i was too impressed...
|
he flattered--i was blushing
|
he found my _joie de vivre_ so cute and rather touching
|
himself so upwardly mobile, so cerebral, clever
|
could i ever live up to his dreams
|
or would i like to play a part in his scheme?
|
i don't think so...
|
|
i have my plans and brave ambition
|
knowing no bounds, no inhibitions
|
'nd i'm aware there's a lesson in every fall
|
so next time i'll get closer

|
|
later i met a boy whose inner life was his true passion
|
we did connect in an exploratory fashion
|
he claimed what tie us to this mortal coil we should sever
|
could i ever live up to his dreams
|
or would i like to play a part in his scheme?
|
oh i fear not...
