Geeze, Did I Also Need Cheese More Perfection By Free Cee
GEEZE, DID I ALSO NEED CHEESE?
I had milk but needed some more
So I let my feet lead me to the door
As I had a thousand times before
Just my feet walking me the store
I said “hi” with happiness to the cashier
Tripping into an aisle for a lack of flair
My body almost took a lady off her feet
That day she and I, again came to meet
I was stoic because she’d left me alone
She stared at me but I was a stone
I’ll never forget it was December three
And then she said “don’t you remember me?
Well let’s see, I’ll flip through the files I keep in my mind
It’s always good to conjure up the image of one who left you behind
I pretended to ponder and faked being difficult to recall
And in a whisper I uttered, “perhaps I met you in one of my many ports of call?
But this was no ordinary lady by any means
She’d been the star, set and lighting for so many romantic scenes
My heart was racing, the one she left a hollowed out hall
Yet I negated my need for her and simply said “no, sorry ma’am, I don’t recall you at all”
