Oh the Delight of Me

Oh the sheer delight of being with me
I am allowed to be free when I’m with me
Oh I’m truly ticked off to a tee
When I’m out with thee instead of me

You’re mean and churly, you chew me out
By crickey is that what love’s about
You drive me crazy and I’m going insane
I’m in pain, and you say I’m inane

You’re my Tarzan handsome and brave
I’m the court jester, Mother, lover and slave
It’s fetch this, get this, come here, now go there
Taint fair even in bed I have to stroke your hair

Then there’s sex , Oh we have our share of that
I wonder what it’s like to have a little chat
Yes you’re in and out of my life every day
So why don’t you try to be light and gay

Oh the wondrous joy of being with me
Oh the utter delight to be free of thee
I’d never shout and I’d never pout
And about my needs I would never doubt

I’d buy me chocolates, candy and a big red rose
Mink coats, diamonds and I’d even propose
Pity to end this ditty with this hypothesis
Loves not fair and the bliss of his my nemesis

this one caught me. i read it slowly and i felt your heart. it blessed me with your saddness and i wished that iwas yours for these moments. where i would give you roses chocolates and furs through words. and that is all that i can afford here. but let a poor boy love you and you can lay your head on his shoulder and never worry about danger cos i'm yo soldier. for ever and a day, just like i told ya. jhl
