Oh Lurve!

"I think I'm falling in love with him" she said, in the midst of bopping around to some chick song.

"Eh?" I said. 'Eh?' I thought.

That made me think. A lot.
What is this love all about?
So I wrote a trashy song,
and played it all night long.


How do they know if it's love or plain ol' infatuation?
Why put yourselves in such a sticky situation?
It's all sad poetry and depression,
or just a way to get some action.


I know I can't rhyme for nuts,
cold cuts, huts and walnuts.
Sue me if you dare
And see if I care.


I know people who fall in love twice a week
Their future does look a little bleak.
They thrive on it like centipedes in my drain
Oh lord! Will they ever use their brains!


They mope and dope during fights and break-ups,
but wouldn't have it any other way.
Just some minor hiccups,
with unfailing confidence they say.


It's like food and water to them
Like that omnipresent winter phlegm
Rippling muscles and pretty pouts
What is all that hype about?.


I know people, who love multiple others,
One wonders if they need blinkers.
Desperation?. I think not.
All they need is to smoke some pot.


Without love their hearts are barren,
I'm sure it has its perks.
Here's when I quote Woody Allen,
and say whatever works.
