"Seven days" was all she wrote A kind of ultimatum note She gave to me, she gave to me When I thought the field had cleared It seemed another suit appeared To challenge me Woe is me
Though I hate to make a choice My options are decreasing mostly rapidly Well, we'll see I don't think she'd bluff this time I really have to make her mine It's plain to see It's him or me
Monday, I could wait 'til Tuesday If I make up my mind Wednesday would be fine Thursday's on my mind Friday'd give me time Saturday could wait But Sunday'd be too late The fact he's over six-feet-ten Might instill fear in other men
But not in me The mighty flea Ask if I'm a mouse or man The mirror squeaked, away I ran He'll murder me In time for his tea Does it bother me at all? My rival is Neanderthal, it makes me think Perhaps I need a drink Iq is no problem here We won't be playing Scrabble for her hand I fear I need that beer
Seven days will quickly go The fact remains, I love her so Seven days, so many ways But I can't run away Do I have to tell a story Of a thousand rainy days since we first met It's a big enough umbrella But it's always me that ends up getting wet
