Cissy the Cyclops
The flowing long brown straggly hair
Reaching halfway down her back
A great big smile that didn’t gleam
Her teeth were all but black
But somehow I managed to fall for Cissy
She certainly wasn’t shy
It wasn’t for her attractiveness
So I had to ask myself why
Cissy was a strange female
One of very few words
She quite often lets out a grunt
But I’ve never been chatty with the birds
When I mentioned a club one night
What did I actually mean
Cos when I saw that look in her eye
It was as blank as a blank look could have been
She thought I meant the one in her hand
And was ready to smash my head
So if I hadn’t moved fast enough
I most certainly would have been dead
We went for a few nights out
The wrestling contest was fun
And guess who beat up all the guys
It was Cissy, she had won
We later strolled down to the beach
Far along the shore
Walking for a couple of hours
To where I’d never been before
Cissy points to the distance
Indicating that she must leave
Not knowing whether to laugh or cry
A sigh of relief I heave
A lot of fun I had with Cissy
The last was by the sea
I’ll never look her in the eye again
As love is as blind as love can be
