Hello honey it’s me.
What did you think
when you heard I was back in town?
Did you come to see,
or ask your shrink
If it was me or some other clown?
Did the kids know?
Did they think
it was their long lost daddyo?
I’ve been traveling all around.
If it happened, I was there.
Quick with the news & sound.
Investigative reporter renowned.
It sometimes is a bear.
Lately, this is what I’ve found.
I miss your not being there.
I think of the kids.
I miss you all,— I swear.
I’ve been offered a job on TV.
On local WKIZ
Reporting the news, you see.
I’ve been thinking about it more.
If I take the job.
Will you take me back once more?
———-O.K. honey,—– I see.
Sure old gal, I understand
I guess he’s better than me.
You don’t have to worry,
I’m such a happy man.
