Selective Hearing Loss
Selective hearing loss going on,
His wife said, "That's a pretty lady"
He said, "She sure is...I mean HUH?"
She squinted and thought, "That's shady"
It went to the back of her mind
She let it slide just like before
Such a close one, but he got by
So glad he wasn't shown the door
I know you think that guy was me
That's the way it usually goes
But I'll tell you what, that's not true
(As far as anybody knows!)
