Disastrous Double Date
A cute guy called James once asked me on a date
He rang me the next day said could he bring his mate
A blind date – oh I’d see if my best mate Jen would come
It might be a disaster then again it could turn out to be fun
Jen and I got ready and wore our pretty dresses
Make up was applied and we brushed our lovely tresses
We met the guys in a bar and how my face fell
No thought of their attire but at least they didn't smell!
James wore a white shirt with buttons sewn on with different cotton
He hadn't made an effort any chance of romance was soon forgotten
I turned around and I had a good look at his best mate Neil
He had a massive scar across his face it made me want to squeal
In the past he been in trouble and had got into a brawl
Some one had slashed his face – not a good thing at all
We sat and had a drink and I looked at my mate Jen
Had hoped for romance – but it wouldn't be with them
Jen and I went off to the loo together (the way that ladies do)
Tried to hatch an escape plan, the lads didn't have a clue
Went back to the bar and soon it was time to leave
Hoped they wouldn't try to kiss us, the idea made us heave
We hurried out of the bar our bus we didn't want to miss
Jen and I climbed the steps of the bus together to avoid a kiss
Sat on the bus and laughed at our awful night
Never heard from James again - our chemistry wasn't right!
A fun tale on Poetry Soup of Jan and Jen flying the coop.
This really is a true story from when I was about 18 years old – the most hilarious thing was the two of us trying to get up the steps of the bus together and almost falling over eachother in the process!
