No More Sad Love Songs

by Twan - Aries

I get tired of going up and down the dial
Listening to divas singing songs about being in denial
You just remind me what I've been through
And if I need a life, you need a clue

How about a love song about this guy I met who I REALLY blanking liked then?
who power-houred me on the Saturday following my birthday when
I vomited a couple times, and my face looked gray
I must have looked attractive, he never called me again.

Meanwhile another one's on the radio, about a man who just lies
And I'd feel sympathy, if I weren't so busy rolling my eyes
And thinking about my relationship with Juan, which went click
I could have done without him telling me I made him feel like a real chick. (NOT that there's anything wrong about that)

Okay, sad love song three, where this lady gets the shaft
but she describes it in such a way that I start to laugh
Hey, Mykel, tell the world about the open relationship that we tried to grow
Except for the "open" part, about which I was the last to know.

I could go on, whining, but you get the point
about how I'm tired of listening when I walk into a joint
Because all love songs are sad, at one time or two
You're supposed to listen to them when you're not feeling blue
Because things will get worse long before they get good
I won't give in to defeat-even if I should
I'm hopeful that life will give me more than I need
Before my body takes a header and I go to seed

So, Toni, I love you, girl, but save your air
From my life, all lazy dummies I shall pare
Because I don't want any more sad love songs
I get a funny feeling after they end-it's called WRONG
Let's stick to me reading and you smoking a bong
and my imagination turning to guys in thongs
So LAUGH! Have fun! Mistakes will be made
And slowly, but surely, avoid all shade
Perhaps you should enjoy life...get paid
Before we're all snuffed out by Mother Nature's Raid.
