Weekend (How It All Began)

i want to know if you wake up on Saturdays to watch cartoons with more than two in the bed running to the kitchen on commercial to refill bowls of cereal and cups of kool-aid not even looking at your watch cause the time you are spending is priceless and lovemade i wonder if the kids go out to play at midday and your wife starts the laundry as you go to the the window you turn the radio to that ol'school station and compare every song to someone you've loved and lost you go "back down memory lane" thinking of skintight red "leather" pants and blue magic you start reminiscing the taste of a "natural woman" who "like a virgin" you touched for the very first time you are comparing the "good times" sharing notebooks symbolic of passing notes in class to "she's got papers" and it's cheaper to keep her ass you "truly adore her" you were her prince she should have been your queen she was your everything yet you did not give her the ring how come you didn't "make it last forever" like the midnight to 5am phone calls like the dollar store sentiments that are still in peripheral view "as we lay" i had wondered does she make love to you does she kiss you the way mind mind wants to? does she "stoke you down" to get you in the mood? is it "fire and desire" as you look in to her eyes? you still in the window as you see a kiss float to you from a cloud do you remember her lips her panty "ribbon in the sky" falls so softly in the palm of your hand you had her wrapped around your finger she was purely ancient like egyptian every time you saw her it was like johnny kemps "friday night" you felt like you just got paid and even though you let her go you still want her to this very day you wonder what she's doing this weekend and if you could just get a way you would just wine and dine her all rainy day she loves to love you in a way you cant describe she doesn't even have to say it, you see it in her eyes you know you would do any thing in your power you are Sampson she is your Delilah she knows your weakness was shed when you cut your dreads so she uses her cleansing powers to heal you and restore your strengths weak in the knees as breast brush against your spleen teeth marks on shoulder blades "these are a few of her favorite things" is she that chick you would cheat on ya wife with? even though she wouldn't let you and you are obliged to respect it and "betcha by golly wow" if you were granted a chance it wouldn't go neglected see you next weekend
