PICKUP # 17

 

When you’re on the pull

If you want to break the ice

Say something funny

Or say something nice

Be devastatingly witty

Or say something clever

Be complimentary

Or just lie in your endeavour

“Wow are you a computer whiz?”

You can enquire of her

“Because it seems you know how

To turn my software to hardware”

ARE YOU WEARING TINTED LENSES?

 

Are you wearing tinted lenses?

And the colour of vermillion

In normal light they look great

But at night you look like an alien

PICKUP # 19

 

When you’re on the pull

If you want to break the ice

Say something funny

Or say something nice

Be devastatingly witty

Or say something clever

Be complimentary

Or just lie in your endeavour

“I'm sorry I wasn't part of your past”

You can say to her

“But I can make up for that

By being in your future”

PUT DOWN # 63

 

Put downs work the best

For deflecting unwanted attention

But try to be amusing

As this relieves the tension

If he says “hey doll can I buy you a drink”

Let him buy you a drink at the bar

Then speak “Let me just say that if bullshit

Was music, you'd be a full orchestra”

GOING TO A FANCY DRESS PARTY

 

My friend told me he was going

To a fancy dress party

Dressed as an Italian island

I told him not to be Sicily

ANAPHYLACTIC SHOCK CAN STRIKE

 

Anaphylactic shock can strike

Even if you are normally well

And I can give you the cause

Of Anaphylaxis in a nutshell

COMBINE HARVESTERS

 

Combine Harvesters

And you'll have a really big restaurant

But a note of caution

Service will still be at best, nonchalant
