Sonnet 98 -- Life is More Than Sex and Romance


Sonnet 98 -- Life is More Than Sex and Romance

I don’t live in a theatrical script
Nor in the Most Magical Place on Earth
“Happy Ever After” leaves me feeling gypped
         As it’s too late now for houses and birth.
         Marriage is more about mealtime than sex
And Romance withers when the bills come due
Got some idea what a guy expects
And the message is she’s nothing like Sue
But you are as big a fool as I am
If you think that all that matters is bed
Men, without money, chicks won’t give a damn
Women, Love Sweet Love won’t comfort the dead
So I wish you all to find perfection
Just don’t look for it in an erection
