Lenny and Sue Sing and Dance

“Lenny”----- Woman who you talking to; Like I’m some sort of fool; And why you got to raise your voice; Like there’s nothing I can do? “Sue”---- It’s you at whom I’m talking at; It’s simple as all that; And my point it must be amplified; Because your ears seem covered by your hat “Lenny” ----- Look it here miss short ****; When I put you to your knees; You might be chocking on those words; And fighting for a breeze. “sue”--- Oh really Mr. moldy pants; Is that something from Art Crumb? You’re just jealous of my toy; But you like it when I’m done. “Lenny”--- So now we’re talking posit traction huh? But it’s sure to cause a wreck; And the one thing that I notice was; It can’t pick up the check “Sue” Why do we dance this twisted tango; To this song called stand by me; And we’re always looking for the truth; But we always disagree. “Lenny”--- I don’t know what the answers are; But please don’t go away; Without you there’s an emptiness; That kills me slow each day. “Sue”--- Fine but No more floating like a butterfly; Or stinging like a bee; I know you’re just a stubborn fellow; But you’re where you’re supposed to be. “Lenny”--- I know you’re right my lovely; But I can’t help myself I keep wondering how I got so lucky; But I’ll stick it in a bottle now; and keep it on the shelf.
