\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Moderately Confused<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I want it all, with nothing lacking.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I want it today. Just like fracking<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Bring it on. Give me more.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Before I head on out the door.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Love is a four letter word.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

You\u2019ll give it all, I\u2019ve heard.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Give me exactly what I need.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

No, don\u2019t give me a joint of weed.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I want the real thing.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

No, not Coke. I want a fling.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Quit trying to dodge the request.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Let\u2019s put this whole thing to rest.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Do you love me or do you not?<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I have pinned you on the spot.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Give the answer and tell the truth.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

This is not an election booth.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I have chased you long and hard.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I ran half way across the yard.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

It\u2019s time to make some front page news.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

It is not time to pick and choose.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Do not say I am too demanding.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

What we need is some understanding.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Two people meet. They fall in love.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

They are like two turtle doves.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

They love each other in every way.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

It is not a dirty thing to say.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I\u2019m not weird, I am horny<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I know you simply adore me.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Why hold back. The time is now.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t look at me with that scowl.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Lovers are as lovers do.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

What do you mean I\u2019m such a fool?<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I don\u2019t only talk about sex.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Like it is some kind of hex.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I just want to show you that I care.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Put a flower in your hair.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

You\u2019re not falling for any of this.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Can\u2019t I even have a kiss?<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

What the hell? As she slammed the door.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

All I wanted was a little more.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n
