She Loves Me She Loves Me Not



She loves me, petals flutter to the ground,
As I heard his words I openly frowned,
I will be her sweet valentine,
he's old and losing his hairline,
divine shall be our kiss,
blimey, how can he miss
In love's warm language we'll recline,
my intentions, he's no Einstein,
listen to Heaven's celestial sound,
I'll silently pray he won't come around,
our lives will dance in bliss.
no, I'm not his princess.

This day's great,
Swiss cheese ate
I'm alive now
his mind's know-how,
in cool moments of delight.
the brain's certainly not right.

Lights popped, in her beauty I nearly drowned;
White bulb flash! He might be on a rebound,
in the wonder of her sunshine,
there's no way I'll be his feline,
benign, nothing amiss,
wine is really his bliss,
our gorgeous hearts they shall entwine,
always drunk fattens his waistline,
we'll dance passion on ecstasy's fair ground,
his sanity, it is pretty unsound,
not a second to miss.
courtship I will dismiss.

Is this fate
Hiss and slate,
that I somehow
raise my eyebrow
stride along without a fight?
as I show him the truth's light.

Despite her oddball efforts to refuse,
Tonight I think I will buy him some booze,
news of our happiness the world will cruise.
tissues too for he has some mad issues.
