2. MY PERSONAL CUPID
My personal cupid just called me collect;
He whispered My darling, you soon shall expect:
Arrival of prince charming - direct from France,
Just dont act idiotic. Please give him a chance!
For years Ive been sending you man after man (he said),
The tallest, the craziest, the smartest, and then -
You cruelly reject them and throw them away,
But this time, my darling, youll have to obey!
Oh boy! Im in panic because I admit,
I love being free without any limit;
And now to be able to deal with a hunk,
I must change my habits or else hell get drunk!
My personal cupid just called me collect.
Im losing my feathers to no good effect, (he said)
Im tired and angry for lack of success,
Im fed-up with you darling. Clean up your mess!
I need a vacation from you and my Boss (he said).
When youll get your Frenchman, Im flying across
America, so I wont phone you again,
I might call it quits, cause you drive me insane!
Im cool but in love - Im just losing my touch -
Im suddenly softer, Im not saying much.
Oh! What can I do, no defense is enough,
Im terribly frightened of cupids new bluff!
My personal cupid just called me collect.
I answered politely, without disrespect.
Hes faxing me over, lamour pour toujours.
If this guy is loaded, Ill take him for sure!
Im actually tired of being alone
And truthfully, nothing was written in stone;
So if Im not married - or getting divorced,
Ill catch, without cupid, my prince on his horse.
And maybe its time to get real for a change;
To stop running wild and a little deranged.
I might settle down, for a while anyway,
And if I dont like it, Ill drop it some day!
