Im-Perfect World

Sadly, some women don't like to see their men bald And by others, if you're bearded, well you'll never get called Then there're the ones that only like their men tall But some only like guys if they're really quite small Some only want you if you know how to dance, If you can't do the tango, then you don't get a chance There's ones that want to ride on the back of a Harley If you don't have one, don't even think of her, Charlie! Some want to travel, of course, if you're paying not all, I concede, but still, I'm just saying... The list can be long, for some of these ladies Including your choice of a car - can you say, Mercedes! You can't be a smoker, a gambler or drinker, An artist, musician, or worse; a deep thinker! Ahem, well anyways, fellows, it does work both ways; We can also have preferences at the end of the day! We might like them thinner than they'd like to be, We might like them shorter, well at least shorter than me! We may want them to like hockey and baseball and sports And also look nice in a cute pair of shorts Some fellows may want a lady who still likes to run while others just want a companion for fun Some guys want their ladies to be really rich While most are just wishing that she's not a real... Which brings me, I guess, to the point of this verse, And it's not that I'm mad and I feel I could curse But if we want someone really nice to come nearer, We should first take a really long look in the mirror!
