Whatever You Say, Dear

Whatever you say, Dear
Do you have a skinny rear?
Do you sing country songs and cry in your beer?
Does your car stay in the same gear?
Is your car hard to steer?
Do you like me whispering sweet nothings in your ear?
When someone does something wrong do you jeer?
When you get hurt do you have a tear?
When something horrible happens do you have fear?
At dusk does the day seem drear?
At a football game do you cheer?
Do you go fishing off a pier?
Have you ever been to a seer?
When a song is sung, is it the words or melody you hear?
Do you think much about your career?
If you don't do these things is it *****?
Well don't veer!
Help will appear!
It will be this year!!
Whatever you say, Dear!!!!!!
