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.
