Bad Timing Made Good

Little Lili from Lankenau
The prettiest girl I ever saw
Tall and lean like a beauty queen
Was home from the modeling scene
Her hubby getting home very early
Spotted a man running and looking burly
He wondered why the man was scantily clad
And why he was running and looking mad
Thinking his wife was too shrewd to cheat
He figured the guy just wanted to beat the heat,
And was just a salesman in a frantic hurry
He figured he really had no reason to worry
He entered the abode intending to flatter
And whatever she said would not even matter
Lili, looking like a kid committing a crime
Told her hubby he was lucky to be just in time
Ten minutes ago her blouse was half undone
Now she was hooked up like your average nun
Trying to change the subject before it arose
She showed him a poem she once composed
