Too Shy To Ask For a Date

George was too shy to ask Eve for a date
His frightful trembling just wouldn't abate
   So he made a recording
   Of an airliner boarding
Warning: "Last call for this Eve ~ Don't be late"

Haha. Eve told George that she was busy with a certain snake. Something about an apple... ~ Garden of Eden Airlines
