I looked in the bathroom mirror
A new tattoo now graced my arm
A Chinese dragon now breathed fire
Caused some pain under my attire
The demon drink had convinced me
Sipping beer one night in a bar
Shown parlor by my supposed friends
And happily blind drunk agreed
Walking lurching sideways inside
Though thought after there'd been no need
Luckily the pain's no problem
It was far worse showing girlfiend
Shook her head, said "That's not for me"
Picked up her things walked out the door
I'm hanging about like a bad dawg
All quiet now just like in a morgue

The nights are not dark enough
Seeing you there years ago
I spied you standing in the street
As you flicked your hair from your face
Such beauty took me back a pace
Or was it that quizzical stare
As our eyes met you were aware!
So walked right up and smiled at you
Seemed the best thing to do I thought
You just grinned at me...I was caught!
So introduced myself to you
"I know" you said "I asked Tessa"
Yes I knew Tessa, my mate's girl
She was dating my best friend Leigh
The world is quite small don't you see
We walked as she was off to work
And I was too, I did not shirk
T'was a short way from her workplace
So each day we'd meet up for lunch
Our eyes would lock as we did munch
Wasn't long before we got engaged
How contented then we both were
What can I say we were a match
Grabbing the moment when it came
That's how to win the mating game
