Ode To a Cougar
Beautiful woman by my side
Soul and body coincide
I love you way too much sometimes
Or perhaps it's not enough
Back when you were my blushing bride
We both were sorely terrified
The kids, the house and minivan
The years flew by in a flash
Then came the day when you walked out
For another your love poured out
Shelter elsewhere you would seek
In the arms of a younger man
I rise up early in my bed
Music playing in my head
What was the tune you used to sing?
So sweetly to my ears
"I would never love another
'Cuz you're the Dad and I'm the Mother"
But your heart was turned astray
By the face of a younger man
