The Date a Collaboration With Jan Allison
This collaboration is with Jan Allison
We met at speed dating and you really caught my eye
I thought I’d hit the jackpot, you were such a handsome guy
We spent some minutes chatting and you asked me for a date
Agreed to meet at Gino’s at a quarter after eight
Dressed to the nines and on the corner of the block
I saw you brought your mother 'Oh boy' that was a shock!
We spent the night flirting, like the house was caught on fire
Oh Bob I think you’re so darn hot, you fill me with desire
I was flattered when you asked me, on a date, that much is true
But I really wish you'd had bid your Mum a fond adieu?
I think we could get serious; I’d love to see you more
I’m pleading with you Bob, just leave your mother at the door!
Oh, she seams so darn aggressive in a way I can't believe
and the things, she said she'd like to do with me, I can't conceive
I hope my Mother doesn't notice all the signs I see
the way this little woman throws herself, all over me
Well, perhaps bringing Mom, was not such a good idea
But how can I take her home, and leave this hottie here
Ok, I called a cab and had my mother taken home
So, me and Jan could have a little time here all alone
It seems we hit it off, but our time was running out
When I heard across the room another man give out a shout
As my heart started sinking, I knew that I'd been had
When the man came up to me, and said, Hello I'm Her Dad
