Every day
Every room I have ever walked into
My whole life long
I have fallen in love
Every bar, every restaurant
Just switching on the TV, watching a movie
Walking to the corner shop, everywhere
I did it at the copywriting conference
Last Friday in London
Three times in the same day
There were so many
Good looking women in the room
I could have fallen in love
A dozen times over
It happened to me again today
In the McDonald’s across the road
I popped in for lunch
There was a girl in there
Whose beauty was off the scale
An affront to the laws of physics
That not even Einstein could explain
The kind of beauty
That sends men insane
And makes Big Macs taste like cardboard
I won’t waste time
Trying to describe her
Words would be inadequate
Not even a photo could do her justice
Such beauty can only be experienced
It goes without saying
She was out of my league
Out of my age range
Unless I’d been rich and famous
Which I’m not
What a hell of a trick
Nature plays on us
Instilling these feelings
These wants and desires
Which can never be fulfilled
Five years from now
She’ll probably be in some porn movie
Or wrapped around a lap dancer’s pole
Torturing a whole generation
