Love Should Be So Simple

She once loved a mathematician
But felt just like an acquisition
Always said trust her intuition
So when she had grief with her transmission
Without an ounce of remission
She dropped the mathematician
And quickly married the technician
Car engine sounded no longer like a ton of rubble
Always said trust her intuition
Now she never ever has any auto trouble
The moral… happiness where it stands
Is finding a guy skilled with his hands
