Some stupid guy with his head in the clouds

Thinks the world is a wondrous place

Next thing you know as he's looking around

Plane hits him in the face

A sight for sore eyes are couples who think

Marriage is not for them

They want their children to know their dad

Is only their partner's friend

I'm going backwards the way I came in

Going forward the same way out

I've got some blue chips to go with my fish

Which is still swimming round about

The sight of a pedophile being abused

A stalker being followed home

Who wouldn't give their right arm to see

A scientist being cloned

What do you do when your think you're in love

And she tells you you must be sure

How do you manage to get out of that

When you know that her heart is pure

On the wings of a dove fight has broken out

Someone flew in a rage hurling drinks about

I'm gonna love you as long as I can

For as long as we both agree

I'm gonna leave you the rest of my life

Along with some jewelry

A sight for sore eyes are couples who think

There's no need for men

If they want a child they just go to a lab

Get it artificially insemmed

Some stupid guy has his arm in a lock

And he can't seem to find the key

Someone should tell him it's probably where

The key to his heart would be

And I'll cry like a big girl

And I'll kick like an ass

Who needs 18/30

50 plus is a gas

I'm gonna love you as long as I can

For as long as we both shall live

I'm going to leave you the rest of my life

For as long as it's mine to give

As long as it's mine to give
