Love Potion Number Six
Though he tried to win her affection
All he got was her rejection
Then his best friend said he knew
A woman who could make a 'love brew'
So off they went with the notion
That they could acquire this love potion
They knocked on the old lady's door
She let them in, so they could explore
He told her of the girl he adored
And how by her he was ignored
Old lady Annie knew just what to do
She whipped up a most potent brew
It was indeed her favorite mix
She called it "love potion number six"
Then she said; "After putting this in her drink my boy
The first person she sees will be her love toy"
Just one drop and the girl would brim
With so much affection, only for him!
But now he had to think,
How to get one drop in her drink
He knew the place she'd go to eat
And that's where he'd put in the potion sweet
So his friend distracted her, and in a wink
He put the love potion into her drink
He puckered up for a passionate kiss,
But then something went amiss
After she took a sip of the potion's blend
The first person she saw was his best friend!!
