Watching You Watching Me

What the hell you looking at
It’s rude to stare you daft old bat
I think I’m gonna look right back
Some might call that tit for tat

That bloke you're with seems quite refined
Doesn’t seem to be your kind
His taste in women I’m debating 
Clearly, you’re no oil painting

You’ve stared at me for quite a while
Debating if I smirk or smile
But here’s a secret you should know
that look means I’ve just let one go

So, rest assured that I’m not down
And that my smile is not a frown 
Don’t listen to that tour guide geezer
I’m not a moaner… and my name ain’t Lisa

Sometimes… scrub that… OFTEN I just can’t help myself. Set me a challenge and I’ll twist it as far as I dare. I get a lot of N/A but hey, it’s free and it’s fun. Glad you enjoyed, Andrea. Terry

Thanks Tom. One of those ‘trying it on’ entries. Don’t seriously expect a placement but you can’t have too many N/As. (Even though I have a growing collection…) Terry ;-)
