Kelly Wasn'T As Pretty As Sally

Sally wasn't as pretty as Kelly,
they had two different personalities;
one was hard to love, the other was
gentle and surrendered easily.  

I shared the love of two girls
who battled to have me desperately;
they fought and pulled their hair,
showing endless rage and jealousy...
they couldn't put an end to their animosity! 
I was torn between the two for years,
and finally decided to keep Sally 
who was truly faithful and had
a genuine, not a sarcastic sense of humor:
Kelly was rageful and showed insanity,
she sent me to hell, then stalked
me and Sally until she realized her madness! 

Sally wasn't as pretty as Kelly,
one had stunning eyes that charmed,
the other a beautiful smile I adored;
I was a lucky dude, but also an unhappy one
breaking up their fights, wiping their tears
and getting slapped a few times...
even though I never took sides in their quarrels,
and watching them being helpless I felt so silly!

Sally wasn't as pretty as Kelly,
but they had a big effect on me;
I didn't need two jealous babes to please me...
all I was looking for was total honesty!
