I wish you better luck next time.

You’ll always have a hill to climb,

So many think you are the best;

God bless your perfect perky breasts

Yes, men are shallow, thick and vain.

You always loved to yank the chain

With your charisma, charm and class;

God bless your round little ass

This is the game you love to play -

For every one that gets away

There are two more who come and beg;

God bless your never-ending legs

Too bad our planet wasn’t flat,

Because if it were not for that

We could have gone that extra mile;

God bless your hair and your smile

Those were the nights, those were the days,

You found so many ways

To let me know that that was it -

God bless your tongue, god bless your wit

In what you did there is no crime

I wish you better luck next time

This isn’t war, but it is art

God bless your crooked little heart
