Question:? She was never quite a swan
She wore funny looking
Coke bottle glasses
Had heavy eye brows
Smoked Cuban cigars
Lived in Berlin
Parked her friendly crocodile
Outside staring at everyone
so friendly & meek
Drank with the blokes
Told ditty yarns
To keep those guys in the bar
In stitches
Spoke with a thick Irish accent
She was never quite a swan
She drove them dogs outside town
Fallin” over themselves
with panic & frost
jumping into vans on the run
In our peaceful loving neighbourhood
To cover they’re ears
When she songs
Sea shanty songs
At around midnight
Of pirates and peace
She was never quite a swan
Tiptoe around her
If you bump into her
At night
She’s really a songbird
a sweet heart that’s smart
who wishes
you wore a cowboy hat
& coke bottles too
you’d both turn heads
boosting your ego’s
turning love into tabloids by afternoon
then you find yourself
in love
another myopic story
you’ll say
nice guys finish first
