WEDNESDAY WHEN IT RAINS

WEDNESDAY WHEN IT RAINS
by Michael R. Clem

I loved a girl in High School — but the love went just one way
If I, by chance, could ask her out, and find the perfect day
that she could spend alone with me, welI, I know i’d have her hooked
but alas, she had no time at all, her week’s completely booked

THURSDAY SHE HAD CHOIR
FRIDAY HAD TO WORK
SATURDAY’S SAVED FOR TEDDY PRINGER
I HATED THAT EFFIN’ JERK
SUNDAY SHE GAVE TO THE LORD
MONDAY’S WHEN SHE TRAINS
TUESDAY SHE RECOVERS
& WEDNESDAY’S WHEN IT RAINS

I flipped for a gal in college, who didn’t know that I was alive
She was 10, a perfect 10, on a good day i was a four or five
I trapped her by the mailbox, and tried to catch her eye
I asked her out, but she said no, and gave her reasons why

THURSDAY SHE HAD CHEMISTRY
FRIDAY SHE’S AT THE POOL
SATURDAY’S SAVED FOR TEDDY PRINGER
HOW THE HELL DID HE GET IN THIS SCHOOL??
SUNDAY SHE GAVE TO HOMEWORK
AND MONDAY TO WHAT REMAINS
TUESDAY – HER SELF-CARE DAY
& WEDNESDAY’S WHEN IT RAINS

It’s not that I don’t have the nerve, desire or the pluck
the week, it has has no room for me, we’ll just call it dumb luck

Today I’m in a retirement home, and there’s a widow down the hall
who I think’s kinda sweet on me, when she saw me take that fall
When we reached for the same soup spoon, our hearts tied in a knot
SOMEone asked the other one out, but don’t ask us who …we forgot

THURSDAY WE NAP AFTER SLEEPING
FRIDAY OUTSIDE WE SIT
SATURDAY WE VISIT HER HUSBAND’S GRAVE
TEDDY PRINGER – AINT THAT SOME SHIT?
SUNDAY WE GET ANOTHER DAY
AND NEITHER OF US COMPLAINS
MONDAY AND TUESDAY WE HOLD HANDS
TIL WEDNESDAY WHEN IT RAINS
WEDNESDAY WHEN IT RAINS
