The Odd Couple

      The Odd Couple

Well, there you go again. Saying I’m a looser.

Just because I don’t want to do it your way.

All you need to know is that I’m not a snoozer.

I won’t miss the opportunity to play.

 

We go round and round about the same thing.

Why must it always be your way?

We need to look at what we both bring.

We both need to have our say.

 

Rulers only listen when they are losing.

Otherwise, they always get their way.

Lovers will still love if they are losing.

But, they are better if they have their say.

 

The day will start out fine with plans you made.

But, let me change just one little thing.

All of a sudden, you’re done with the charade.

Lightning strikes again  into our fling.

 

You will not see any view but your own.

Rational arguments is like  spitting into the wind.

They come back twisted & hurt to the bone.

This is definitely coming to a rapid end..

 

Rulers only listen when they are losing.

Otherwise, they always get their way.

Lovers will still love if they are losing.

But, they are better if they have their say.

 

After a month or two of not seeing you.

You still will not discuss the problem.

You must think no one can see through you.

But, this does not bring a solution.

 

After all is said and done, it’s sad.

The good times were some of the very best.

But, they don’t outweigh the bad.

Even so, I don’t think of you any less.

 

Rulers only listen when they are losing.

Otherwise, they always get their way.

Lovers will still love  if they are losing.

But, they are better if they have their say.
