Synchronicity

Wainwright Loudon


Little did I know, though I probably should have guessed 
By the way you walked and talked and spoke and smoked an dressed 
You actually seemed to like me and so naturally I presumed 
You were after that thing, it's the one thing, it's assumed 

So I wined and dined you, hey, I love that kind of stuff 
And we blabbed about our backgrounds, how family life is rough 
We spoke of what we dreamed of, what we thought of, what we did 
Midway through the second bottle I admitted I had kids 

But nothing seemed to throw you though I know you better now 
At the time my minor crime was figuring out how 
To get you in my hotel room unclothed and in my bed 
And proceed with the unspeakable, it's better left unsaid 

We went to see a friend of your and watch me on TV 
Sheer coincidence you said, synchronicity 
A full moon on a Friday night, the thirteenth of July 
A man and two women in a room and on the screen the guy 

Your friend, she liked me on the show, yeah she was snowed for sure 
Her body language got obscene, her demeanor less than pure 
You started venting something wearing spleen upon your sleeve 
You got sort of nervous, kind of anxious, had to leave 

You told me on the freeway that you didn't sleep with men 
I put two and two together…and I asked about your friend 
It turns out she and though she loved my show 
She too preferred the fairer sex-I absorbed the blow 

It turns out that you did like men but didn't like their things 
That hang down and all the hang-ups being with them always brings 
My brother is so practical; this is what he said: 
"You should have asked if it was cool to watch them both in bed"
