A Very Vain Vine
A VERY VAIN VINE
Twine twisted around a vine
Whilst the philodendron were doing just fine
No weed to choke a tulip by a bud beguiled
And there were no weeds to make certain we all smiled
Laughter began every day when the alarm clock rang
But I heard the echo of a sorrowful song an angel once sang
But then came the angel again singing happily and offered up as a present
He repaired her sorrow because he wants all of us feel pleasant
I would tell you I’m glad you became an appendage of mine
And came simply to make this sodden soul once again to shine
Sometimes things go awry and for a moment you feel sad
But that’s only because he knows you’ll feel better when you finally feel glad
The sight of vines and aroma of the philodendron filled the air
While a man demanded a lady be ever his with a flesh so fair
as for me he's all about damnation, gloom and doom
He might do s**t like that for you but he treats me like a urinal in the universal men’s
room
