August, 2003

Great idea, just
Follow these rules
Men will drool at your feet
But then again,
     Are men that stupid
That playing hard-to-get
Is the answer to love?
So hey
What are the rules for life, then?
Play hard-to-get
And your boss will
Shit-can your sorry ass
Bill collectors will hassle you
And no one will bring you
Cookies when you're sad
And your heart lies
Beating on the floor
After your latest conquest
Ripped it out by brute force
Yeah.
Sure.
I'm tough
Hard to see
Mysterious
You'll wonder, did I shave
All my legs, or only the
Part that shows
And you go home to your
TV and bitch
And wonder
Why it seems so easy on TV
You need better scripts
For your days
So your jokes will come
Pre-tested
Guaranteed not to
Fall flat
Like your hair
Inevitably will
And your nylons will
Run
Especially if your
Skirt is short
So just
Forget about the lower-body condom
For tonight
And boogie with the band
And forget
Society
Rules
Laws
Curbs
Mandater
And just order up another
Round of tequila
And kick back
With a shaker of salt
It's gonna be long
     But worth it.
