Round The Bend At Sixty Miles/Hour

Rating: 4.5


</>'Wait, I know this...now let me see;
how to turn left at the right curve? '
'No honey He....
(Mr right) left her because she had no curves,
you're confusing the two.'
'Hey, who asked you?
now I go straight as for the rest of the way...'
'Good idea, that'll convince me to stay
in this marriage(I think) .'
'Whatever woman, now if I could find pink
street...'
'Don't you mean Brink
street? '
'...then I could make it 'round the bend
up ahead.'
'I would sure like to 'bend'
someones head.'
'Man I like this car, it holds all your weight,
yet is still roaring with a V8;
muffled by the soft leather interior...'
'Just goes to show that all you men are inferior,
and you think that cheating makes you great;
well you're mistaken my dear Vicki.'
'Check the license plate, it's Ricki! '
'Yea yea... I just stayed
for the kids, which reminds me;
they ain't yours and the lawyer just okayed
the papers so pull over honey.'
'You may wanna reconsider that...'
'Grr...you men and your over-compensating egoes'
'Fine, get out; steady as she goes,
(I wonder what that dog will have to say to that) '
'Ahhhhh...you...., I'm sorry'
' I just love putting nagging divas out of worry'

If I were the mother I'd say this about driving round bend:
asking for directions is much easier in the end;
You fools! ...
