Bart's Girlfriend

There was this guy Bart that I met in Prague,

Told me his girlfriend lived down in a bog.

“She’s big and she’s green, with long yellow fangs,

And seaweed hangs off of her head like green bangs.

 

The first time I met her she bit off my hand, and spit it out next to me into the sand.

The next time I met her, this guy Bart he said,

“If she bites you again, I’ll cut off her head.”

 

Well this time she bit off my leg, and she even ate Bart,

That’s when I decided that I had to start,

Thinking of ways to get rid of this creature,

So I hobbled to town to talk to the preacher.

 

“It’s love that it need!” he beamed at me,

“Just show it some love, and then you’ll see.”

So to the bog I went with love to share,

Bart’s girlfriend came out, and greeted me with a stare.

 

I shouted at her, “I came to share love!”

And offered her the preacher’s precious white dove.

Well she snatched up the dove, broke it in two,

Threw it aside and said “Now onto you!”

 

I turned to run as fast as I could,

But was bitten in half like an old piece of wood.

My final thought before I had died,

Was that love had solved nothing, the preacher had lied.
