Annoyous Interruptus

He sidles up next to you, so stealthily It’s like he appeared out of thin air Then breathlessly, he gives you a Jimmy Stewart howdy do, and starts air guitaring in his chair Just when you were on the verge of hitting the right vibe with a cute little honey thing This joker Jack Nicholson clone starts shining on and on And in your dark Alfalfa heart, you wish this Spanky bag of bones would be poof ... Aladdin gone But you don’t wanna waste one of your three date wishes on him, so you ignore this glib talking Jungle Jim In the meanwhile, that pretty little woman is beginning to idly yawn, as the flirtations have come to a tepid halt That seven digit rooster ain’t gon strut come dawn, a cell phone dropped call won’t be at fault As Annoyous Interruptus cackles in your ear, your road rage accelerator hits the sixth gear But you remain calm, keeping your wits intact ... trying to give him a subtle hint with a nodded wink You motion for him to skedaddle away, but Pepe Le Pew seems intent to stay You mutter to yourself: man, does his cologne stink With dull, blank eyes giving you a Lost in Space stare, you flee swiftly, leaving love empty ... but you don’t care Annoyous Interruptus causes premature evacuation Pester Interfereus is the bane of dating stimulation Annoyous Interruptus makes flaccid all of your romantic overtures Pester Interfereus has caused many a late-night social club wars
