Buddy Love

With hair jet black slicked, Buddy’s not your friend.
Oh, he wants you, doll! Watch his music send
you into a frenzy!
But Buddy is crazy —
he’s truly your professor with a blend.

More like Jekyll and Hyde — this is his con.
In the classroom, with gnarly teeth and wan.
He’s a science nerd.
Love is much preferred.
With a test tube he’s turned into a swan.

On your pulse, the melody master voice,
but he’s rude and crude, sorely not your choice.
You prefer the nerd in glasses —
the professor in your classes.
When you find out his secret you rejoice!
