It’s a Crazy World
I was there when it started coming down.
There was no more happiness to be found.
All there was, was heartbreak and misery.
There was no way to reverse it, that I could see.
The parents told me to get the hell out.
But, I wasn’t going to sit around and pout.
I went about proving that they were wrong.
I didn’t want this to take too long.
I was not two timing their daughter.
It was all a bunch of hog fodder.
I will get the bastards who said such a thing.
They are not getting away with anything.
I followed my sources to the very end.
It pays to have some real friends.
The last clue fell into place.
I almost fell right on my face.
The culprit of rumors was my sister.
Just because I wouldn’t kiss her?
I told her it was the wrong thing to do.
I’d rather kiss my girlfriend than I would you.
She vowed to get revenge.
She wasn’t sorry, so why pretend.
So, I gave her a kiss and told her to talk.
Most won’t believe it, as likely as not.
She came clean about the whole darned thing.
Told the parents why she tried to make a scene.
The parents apologized for saying I flirted.
But, still no dating, cause I was perverted.
I almost flew into a rage.
I felt like I was in a cage.
I’m not perverted, it is my sister.
They said that’s a real twister.
How do we know it doesn’t run in the family?
I said, I don’t try to give little girls candy.
They finally relented and said we could date.
My girlfriend said I was a little bit late.
She found another to occupy her time.
This whole thing almost blew my mind.
But, the men is white coats are nice to me.
They let me roam around on the grounds, you see.
My sister comes to visit now and then.
She seems to be dating my X- girlfriend.
