The Forgotten Wedding Anniversary

The Forgotten Wedding Anniversary By Elton Camp Come on, wives, please get real He forgot, so what’s the big deal He’s still around, isn’t he? He cares, you can easily see With a young chick he didn’t run away Rather, with the old hen, decided to stay The anniversary date why didn’t you say It’s ever so much easier on all that way So his secretary a gift could arrange Thus keep him out of the firing range You knew what to expect when you wed “Men are apes,” it’s correctly been said Apes lie around and scratch all day It’ll never become any other way Dates to apes are a foreign concept It’s their nature, they’re not inept So why should you be upset at all An anniversary he didn’t recall
