Pot and Kettle

“You never close your eyes anymore when I kiss your lips,”
                  the Righteous Brothers self-righteously chirp.

                            How did the brothers even know
                              that their girls' eyes were open
                                unless theirs were open too
                                 during that aborted scene?
    
                            ‘You’ve Lost That Loving Feeling’ 
                                 nice tune but crazy wording,
                             Cynthia Mann and Phil Spector!
   
                                           Pot and Kettle 
                                           is a better title,
                                           says Don Cool.
