Dinner and a movie? Dancing on the town.
Travel to Paris, a visit to new eros
Without a care in the world
At the Moulin Rouge
You’ve got your new year’s babe,
I’ve got my valentine girl;
Two lovely chicksas
Back in the day
Mid-century modern
Then God made women
Without a care in the world.
Life was a burlesque fantasy
We danced and we loved
We went and we spent
We sought and we traveled
We played and unraveled
Consumed every probability
O, the mysteries of yore!
We spent our inheritance for
The days that are no more
We lived our lives
With our lovely wives
Who lived in a man’s world
They didn’t mind,
As long as they got to be the females.
Ask Marilyn, she’ll tell you!
They had us wrapped around their pretty finger
Like a ring around a rose.
Leading us ‘round by our nose
Those deco dolls, those holiday girls
Happy wife, happy life,
And that’s the way the story goes. ~psp
