Women versus Men

A WOMANS VIEW

Have you seen that bottle blonde?

She asks her friend to look again

If that girl doesn’t dye her hair

She must certainly dye her roots then

A MANS VIEW

Have you seen that smashing blonde?

He asks his mate who looks a lot

What about her collar and cuffs?

Do you think they match or not?

SISTERS

I’ve met strange girls

In this life of mine

When seeking company

From time to time

Strange like the sisters

That once I knew

Two sisters known

As Pam and Sue

Now Pam was the oldest

As a matter of fact

And she had blonde hair

Right down her back

That sounds all right

You would have said

But it grew down her back

And not on her head

Now Sue was the younger

It has to be said

And she wasn’t blonde

She was a red head

And when I saw her

I was filled with dread

She had no hair

Just a very red head

HAIR

Some men love them red

Others love them brown

Some men like it up

Others like it down

Some men love them mousy

Others love them black

Some men like it forward

Others like it back

Some men love it ginger

Others love it blonde

I don’t care about their hair

Its girls themselves I’m fond

MIXED RACE

He was a man from Coventry

And she was born in Brittany

But despite their nationality

They soon found similarity

They wed and found a flat to let

And they had a child named Violet

And when the daughter came of age

It was time for her to earn a wage

A model’s life is what she chose

But agents turned up a collective nose

The strangest thing had caused alarm

She only shaved beneath one arm

ONE MANS FISH

One man’s fowl

Is another man’s fish

A skinny girl that’s

My ideal dish

I like them thin

And I like them lean

Because it takes a waif

To keep me keen
