Photographic Memory

I've got a photographic memory That I sometimes forget to mention Wait, is that like an oxymoron Just seeing if you're paying attention See, I can remember everything But sometimes it's a curse I even remember my mother-in-law's face I mean, how could it get any worse? Now sometimes, me and my wife will argue And this is something, I really dread Cause, I don't have to remember a thing She reminds me of every word I said There's some things I just can't remember You know, like taking out the trash But I think that's why I got married Cause, she reminds me in a flash And, there's other things, I might forget Like, putting down the toilet seat She becomes a regular Jekyll And Hyde The meanest woman you'll ever wanna meet So, remember, if ever I write a poem And the words don't seem to rhyme Say, "I thought you had a photographic memory" Cause I forget it all the time
