I'm looking for a fine upstanding man
To keep me on the straight and narrow
He must have a taste for Spam
Or else eat like a sparrow
For I can open Spammy tins
But my cooking shows water will singe

I'm looking for a man who for me
Will pay the price, the knee will bend
A man who will preserve my purity,
protect me from the rest and defend
If I could find a man like he,
We'll make Napoleon and Josephine history

I'm looking for someone gentle
Sincere and also kind
Someone who could help me search
When I've lost my mind
Someone who could cook and clean
So my rough hands, need not demean

I'm seeking someone special
Someone to tame my heart
I'm not particular about racial
So long as he, don't need a jump start
A man like that who would be true
Could that someone maybe, be you?

Nan,
well I've looked on the railway tracks (no man there) I looked in all the backpacks (none there as well)
I've looked upon the tables trestle (no man but I did have a nice smorgasboard)
tried conjuring one with mortar and pestle (no man, but I created a frog does that count)
I've looked in woods and inside logs (no man but the hedgehog got a fright)
on The beach no men in togs (translation bathers or swimmers)
If I can't find a man for me
I'll stay footloose and fancy free.


Marsha as you can see it's a sorry state of affairs at my house, guess I'll go back to roasting marshmallows.  

Be well, you're swell
Keth.

I'd keep the poor man constantly searching! LOL. This is great, Kethry... good luck! *S*
