Fate is a cruel puppeteer

The strings are always tangled

here is a handsome little boy

who's too idealistic about love

and there's the pretty girl

who dreams about sweet romance

but their paths diverge from there.

 

The boy stood here waiting

cultivating himself, watching

he becomes dense and deep

working his way to the world

hoping to be the perfect man

 

The girl samples life like a dish

jumping from one man to the next

lures them into her arms,

sucking them high and dry

She likes them fresh and fun.

 

Until she met the perfect match

the player, slick as a slug

ruthless as a bully or street punk

pretending to be all that

just like her.

 

All this happen, while the boy

gazed and seeks, becoming geek

no chances anywhere,

"he was so lame," they said.

girls don't play for keeps

 

The player and the silly girl,

have the love of their life

emotional screams,

passionate, beastal make-ups

steamy action until she's used and sore.

 

They eventually broke up

and now the girl's turning 30

that special age of bridal needs

and that's when fate interwined

suddenly all eyes turned to homeboy

 

the boy got a steady job,

and he looks the steady type.

quiet and shy, can't talk or lie

the type you can bring home

and trust him to just stay there.

 

boy meet girl again, but boy's no tool.

where's he when they had all the fun?

now as they begin to drown

old and saggy, they swim toward him

grabbing him like a life-saving charm.

 

and what the boy learned,

being single from all these years.

'Solitude can no longer hurt you,' he said.

But the idea of a 30 year old women,

screwed by the whole town, and now

drooling over your savings account.

Now that certainly can kill you.'
