A chip off the old block I am,
     No regard for propriety.
Society's rules I condemn,
I n'er get up until p.m.
     Only one thing on my mind; thee.

As with the rest of Adam's kin,
     I am easily led by Eve.
Some say my heart is made of tin,
I merely nod at them and grin.
     I wear my lust upon my sleeve.

Man, who has sprang from Adam's seed,
     Nation builders; weakness for her.
For her embrace on knees we plead,
We have such a licentious need.
     She is love's grand entrepreneur.

Ah yes gentlemen, the great debate about Eve.  Well, my thinking is that she is like any other female of the species in that the main purpose for existance is to attract the male for all the pleasurable purposes God had in mind to entice procreation.

Ah, Eve. If only she hadn't swallowed......the apple. Ha. Enjoyed. I adore these lines:

Nice spin Jerry
I was wondering what that was on your sleeve. So that's what lust looks like.

Loved it and hey who can deny!!

Hello baby, yeah, this is the Big Bopper speaking
Oh you sweet thing
Do I what
Will I what
Oh baby you know what I like


[Chorus:]
Chantilly lace and a pretty face
And a pony tail hanging down
That wiggle in the walk and giggle in the talk
Makes the world go round


There ain't nothing in the world like a big eyed girl
That makes me act so funny, make me spend my money
Make me feel real loose like a long necked goose
Like a girl, oh baby that's what I like


What's that baby
But, but, but, oh honey
But, oh baby you know what I like


[Chorus]


What's that honey
Pick you up at 8 and don't be late
But baby I ain't got no money honey
Oh alright baby you know what I like

Amaryllis, it was tongue-in-cheek. So sorry you were offended.

Nice work.

A black cat ran in front of me tonight. I'm not worried. They don't bother Warlocks.
