'But I'll Be Your Mate' (original SILLY ukulele song sorta thing)

Cor, dear, I really went for it! Sorry! Erm, I know I said my next one would be a serious song, but I got distracted! There's too much sadness and stress in the world so I enjoy attempting to make people laugh or a least smile :-D Even if you laugh *at* me, I don't care :-)

LYRICS:

So, I think I get it now,
You're trying to impress me,
Should I say wow!
Or fall to my knees,
Say more pretty please.

Right, I understand you now,
You're in love with me,
Should I pat you on the back,
Stroke your massive........ego,
Say more, pretty please.

You seem to be a bit slow to catch on,
I thought you would of guessed by now,
Given it a rest,
I ain't interested,
Not even a teeny, tiny, weeny bit,
You're just too late,
But I suppose I could be your mate
(In a very loose sense of the word)

So, do you understand me now,
I'm not in love with you,
It take more than flowers
To make me say wow!
What do you think of me now?

So, do you get me now,
It takes more than your big......head
To begin to impress me,
You've got no chance
Or undressing me mate.

(ad-lib rambling bit, cor dear! It wasn't what I was meant to say, but in the end was way better lol)

If you were honest and kind,
Actually right in the mind,
Able to love unconditionally,
Were a bit of an eco-warrior,
A vegetarian,
Charitable,
Bothered to shower every day,
If your name begin with a......Z (zed),
If you were amazing in......an emergency situation,
If you loved housework,
And gardening,
(So I wouldn't have to do it),
Were good with kids,
And animals,
And plants,
Were actually taller than me,
And stronger than me,
And sensitive, but in a manly way,
And actually listened to me when I speak,
And wouldn't mind....
My rambling,
Like I'm doing right now
And my unhealthy love for my ukulele,
My getting stressed about mess,
My bad cooking,
My bad singing,
My randomness,
My odd sense of humour,
My need to be friends with everyone and everything,
(whether they like it or not)
And my incessant need to sing silly songs,
Like I'm doing right now.

Then I'd agree to a date,
But sorry mate, your just too....late.

You see I've just raised my standards.

But I'll be your mate X3

In a very loose sense of the word.
In a very very etc etc loose sense of the word.

Sorry mate, you look upset, do you want a hug.

PS If I ever meet you, you'd probably be suprised at how quiet I am. :-D

Thanks to anyone watching this and I really appreciate people's kind words and support :-) Love you X

[matthewvaughan]

A heartbreaker, huh? That's cold ;)

[StubyStubyDoo]

Nice story telling. I'm now inspired to write something about anti- ecowarrior non vegetarian utilitariantll blokes who are crap at listening and are really good at cooking and who believe that liberal eco warriors are the route cause of the worlds woes. Well that and sharwoods cooking sauces.

I need a catchy title though!
