Of Course I Love You
Of Course I Love You
By Elton Camp
A young man wants so much to fornicate
But to be considered a **** Sue does hate
“But, I haven’t been out with you before.
How do I know you’ll date me anymore?”
Joe gives her a nudge and a broad smile
“I’ve had my eye on you for quite a while.”
His comment is actually nothing but sleaze,
He’ll let Sue take it anyway she may please
It’s true Joe has had his eye on her all right
Because he figured she would do in a tight
It was Saturday night and he had got no date
He decided she’d be okay, though not great
Sue thought that Joe was a really cute boy
But didn’t want to face being only a toy
“Joe, if you love me, then it might be okay
But I am pretty sure that don’t feel that way.”
“Why of course I very much love you, Sue
That’s the very reason why I want this to do
It’s clear you don’t love me unless you agree
And it’s probably and old maid you’ll be.”
Next week, Joe bragged to his pals in the gym
Sue got the word and angrily confronted him
Joe said, “From my life you will disappear.
For I only told you what you wanted to hear.”
