Hey Larry, I used to be young and Oh! so hip
but now my curvaceous hips surprisingly slip
when I dance to old songs
from Gladys Knight and her Pips
I loved to twist and do the monkey too
the mashed potatoes and slow dance to the blues
I loved wearing my yellow polka dot bikini
but now Larry, before I wear it
I need to drink a few vodka martini’s
I loved making out at the drive-in movies
parking in the back…I thought it was groovy
swooning over Elvis’s blue suede shoes
he had more money than Howard Hughes

Hey Victoria, I too used to be young but not that hip
there never was a time I even took a nip
never learned to dance, not even to old songs
I didn’t know how to twist
but boy could I shout along
I’ve always loved a yellow polka dot bikini
in fact the girls could turn my head
And not just 'cause those suits were tiniwini
When I wasn’t working on my ’55 Chevy
But now Victoria, I’ve got my girl
and think a lot about that Chevy
swooning over cars was what I did best
age has taught me I can’t do the rest

I luv a yellow polka-dot bikini, especially if its teeny weeny and not on a one-eyed, one-horned, flying, purple people-eater!
Well done you two

I can recall, the bikini and when...
It's been awhile, though I'm tempted again
To show off my body, my hips and the more.
What else to do when you seek to allure. *s

I know about Gladys, her Pips and her Knight.
I have my own that I treasure despite.
I love to dance closely with no room to spare,
Twisting and mashing, gasping for air...

Don't need the drinking, life's more than I need
To inspire the thrills that the drive-in would feed
But I'm never too old to love again, swoon
Awaiting am I, this child of the moon...

Wynter...enjoying you and Larry *s

It was not my lips you kissed, but my soul."
