I can’t fathom their thoughts, twisted, distorted
No keenness for sports though their interest is courted
They shop all the time, buying items on credit
They claim to save money, the bank shows a debit
Hours on the phone but no news to share
Appointments in salons for nails, skin and hair
Mirrors checked frequently to see how they look
If they only spent time learning to cook
Rational disagreements turn into fights
They list all your failings long into the night
Your statements reversed, scorned and reviled
You’ll never be fit to father her child
Time is a concept they know nothing about
Until you are late, then you’d better look out
Their bodies are different, and that’s where they shine
You go exploring and reach moments divine
You think in the household that you’re number one
You’ll quickly discover it’s so sad to be wrong
I’m resigned just to cope with she I adore
I do what she asks, I complete every chore
I spoil her with kindness, beguile her with flowers
Then she leaves me in peace, at least a few hours
But they’re so darned entrancing, seductive and sweet
You find you’re in love, life feels so complete
You haven’t a chance, resolves speedily melt
When Valentine strikes it’s like nothing you’ve felt
With curvaceous bodies and come-hither smile
Overcome with desire you’ll walk right down the aisle
