Flipping the Wig

The girl had her groove on she 
laughed a lot and was hip and 
not too heavy going. At seventeen 
I needed an old lady to go to the
prom with. Not wanting to wipe 
out on my first try I caught the 
groove, Taking my time, this chick
was bitchen from top to bottom,
But I had a gnarly set of nerves 
because I woke up with a zit on my
nose, what a bummer. I didn't want 
her to think I had cooties so I waited. 
The time came to ask her. Well, after 
all this feeling like a dork, she said 
yes she would love to go. 
Wow what a gas, I flipped out.
