He's Out of My Life

LOOSELY BASED ON THE MICHAEL JACKSON SONG SHE’S OUT OF MY LIFE He’s out of my life Because he’s got a wife And I don’t know whether to laugh or cry If I see him now I’d whack him in the eye But if I had a knife I’d pass it on to his wife He would hold my hands We’d make love on the sands To think for two years he was here He had the best of both worlds now he lives in fear So I better not expand Or I’ll soon be on remand! So I’ve learned that I’m not his possession And I’ve learned that this guy I hate Now he’s gone and I’ve got depression But I’ve learned too late He's out of my life Gone back to his wife Guess I loved him but found out he lied If I get my hands on him I’ll end up inside And it cuts like a knife But the rat is out of my life Jan Allison 10th August 2014

This is a lot of fun have you ever recorded it with the music or got someone else to sing it. Wouldn't that be fun. A blast from the past. I am going to fav it to pop in on it occasionally.

I do worry where my muse takes me sometimes Maurice - I heard MJ on the radio and next thing this appeared - I think it would be hilarious to record it - do a Weird Al Yankovic with it - was a fun write. Thanks for dropping by I am so glad its on the home page along with your poem at least we get a second bit of the cherry!!! I've seen your comment about cherries lol couldn't resist that one:-) hugs jan xxx

WuuuuHOOO, SHamOE! HUUU.. Twist Moonwwalk, Grab crotch...HOOOOOOOOOOOO! Hello! MJ....Making love in the sand, Givin' a phony Gerbroni the boot,,,This one's got it all. Love me some King Of POP. I don't tell too many people this but back in '04 I met Michael, while working at Planet Hollywood in Orlando Florida. It was a triP indeed, Much like your WoW-ing poet TreeZ!~ Keep your head up, Quill on, and Eyes open, either a dude keeps love real, or he dies smokin'!~JoeY

Thanks for the most awesome comment Mr Roboto - its purely a tongue in cheek write but I had fun with it. Lucky you meeting MJ guess he is making sweet music in heaven but has left us with a legacy of his music forever:-)
