A-Muse II

What's the big deal about a life partner anyway
Someone to take care of, who won't do what I say
Someone to argue, and compromise with
Is it worth the bother, or is it a myth
Do I really need someone in my life
In truth, I've been doing quite well with no wife

Shall I be anti social, or simply a recluse
A hermit perhaps, warm and safe from abuse
I could be sailing a jonboat for crabbin
Or doze by the fireplace in my log cabin
A caveman perhaps, they knew how to get laid
At least that's what my schoolteachers all said

However, all things have upside and downside
The bed is unmade because it's too wide
The cupboards are bare, with two boys to feed
We eat on the road, we're seldom in need
Of warmth from the kitchen, meatloaf in the pan
The once a year chili from the old Schwans man

If I could just find a cute little woman, who
Loved me for me, and liked to do what I do
I'd grab her up and squeeze her so tightly
She'd laugh and wiggle, while her eyes glowed so brightly
I'd ask her to stay, and she would say groovy
Let's cuddle up here and watch a good movie
