I Am All Ears

Well, aren’t you a sight for sore EYES 
Off the top of my HEAD its been nearly two years

Yes ,I have been keeping busy
A FINGER in every pie that’s me
It has been a bit of a struggle
I did put my NECK on the line
Many times I cried my HEART out 
Then would dust myself off and say “ok girl CHIN up”
And FACE the music

Yes we were away for a while
We had really itchy FEET
Though we were BACK before we knew it 

I've kept an EAR out to see if anyone had heard from you
I did hear you started your own confectionary business
You’ve always had a sweet TOOTH
It’s on… “Now what’s the name of that street “?
It’s on the tip of my TONGUE….
It is something like KNEE 
Kneetson No Kneedham thats it!

You’ll have a lot of ELBOW room there
If you ever need help 
I can always lend a HAND

Oh ,you heard about that incident did you
She really put her FOOT in it this time
She has a such CHEEK
I told her to get off my BACK
To stop looking down her NOSE at me

I’ve always been upfront with her
Worn my HEART on my sleeve
Though getting the truth from her
Is like pulling TEETH
She is a royal pain in the NECK

I ARMED myself for the next encounter
My HEART was in my MOUTH
To be honest I got cold FEET
Best I keep her at ARMS length 

So last time I saw her ,I said 
I hope you are all EARS 
I need to get something off my CHEST

I politely wished her good luck
Told her to break a LEG
And kiss my ****!!
