She had a face that you could almost place, you did not want to for fear of
Hearing her voice like you did last night on the telephone when she told
You your kisses were not as thrilling as they were once and she knew it
Wasn't her fault, so there must be something wrong with how you felt
About their relationship. You of course had no idea what she meant
So you uncapped the bottle or Ripple and took a mighty slug and it
Choked you some, but you made her think it was only a coughing
Spell you had. Hey Baby, you said, I still know how to plant one
On you. She walked over and you puckered, but she took the
Ripple and had herself a slug which was deep as was yours.
If it was good enough for Redd Foxx, it's good enough for
me and she gave it back to you, so you had some more.
After passing the Ripple round a few times somehow all
of their clothes were on the floor and the two arguing
lovebirds were wrestling on the carpet and making
enough noise to wake up the neighbors except it
was daytime, and everyone was at work but not
These two who had satisfied their sexual need
never mind the yearning for the Ripple jug.
I'm just a hole you can stick that thing in
you don't care about me and you never
have. I'm going home to mother now.
I hated to break the news to her, but
I had to, so I said, You don't have a
Mother, she died ten years ago. I
I ought not to have said that to
her. She countered with, Who
am I? That shocked me, so I
stammered around and said
Joan. She laughed 'til she
cried and said, Beverly's
my name, who are you?
Tim? Because I wasn't
sure. Then it hit me
last night; the bar.
A few drinks with
Friends. So Bob
Has my wife
And I have
His. That
isn't cool
Oh, my
What
Will
We
Do
