I get a bagel  the cute girl is working
for instance, she says,  you're very attractive 
I agree for argument's sake
it's a great evening free sandwich, I type:


a friend of mine once said,
"It's twenty times better to be friends 
  with someone
than to be in love with them."

I think he's right and besides,
it's raining somewhere

		BUT

if a girl likes me a lot
and starts getting real nervous
and suddenly begins asking me funny questions
and looks sad if I give the wrong answers
and she says things like,
"Do you think it's going to rain?"
and I say, "It beats me,"
and she says, "Oh"
and looks a little sad
I think: Thank God, it's you baby, this time
    instead of me.
