2 B Or Not 2 B Funny Or Smart
Up until recently
When I was growing up
All I ever wanted to be was considered funny
And recently I discovered that is in fact
What people thought of me
And how they would describe me
All along
Who knew
And the reason maybe why I thought this
Was because I was lead to believe
That what woman find to most attracted
About men is if they are funny
And can make them laugh
And I thought I was the one
Who was supposed to be funny
And make jokes
Well that was an absolute ripper
Funny
Ha ha ha
I am still laughing at that 1 till today
Boy did I make girls laugh
Some nearly went as far as to wet themselves
Literally when all I had to do was ask them out
But it never once managed to get me a date
Now all I want to be is to considered smart
Not that that will get me anymore dates
Or make me any more appealing
Or attractive to women
The my main reason is
So I am not stupid enough
To be taken in and believe
In things that are quite clearly obviously
Practical jokes in theory
Or my version anyway
Intended to make funny people such as I
Who make the ladies laugh all day
So much so they want to pee
Not want to go out with the likes of me
Because although I may well be funny
Come to think of it
Buying into and believing that
Is actually very funny indeed
Unfortunately what it also points out as well
It doesn't appear to make me seem very smart
Now does it
In actual fact it makes me come across
As more like a clown
