Why Is It

Why is it after you wash a pair of socks
you can only find one
And we only really appreciate youth
when it's to late and gone.

Why do we always get a huge spot 
on the end of our nose before a date
And we are always the last in a cue 
and have to wait.

When your in the shower the telephone rings
and when your partner tidy's up
you can never find anything.

Why is it when you try to impress
we always make a mess
Why do women want bigger
or smaller breasts.

Why when you are down
they say your blue
when all you see is black
And soon on your holiday
you miss home and want to come back.

Why do electrical appliances 
always break in 3's
And in simmer we are so attractive 
to wasps and bees.


Why is it as soon as you get to the dentist
your toothache mysteriously goes away
And why is there never enough time
in the day.

Why when so many people are starving
we still throw so much food away.

Makes no sense to me.
