MY SHIP CALLED RELATION

JUST A TWISTED LOOK AT REALTIONSHIPS FROM A TARNISHED POINT OF VIEW

There is a ship that we all know

It flies the flag of every nation

Never sails or leaves it's port

For that ship is named“relation”

 

 

We christen it with champagne

Maybe toast it with some wine

Laughs smiles and words of love

Seem to occupy ones time

 

 

Now the ship is in the water

Let's see if it will float

Has a few minor leaks

That's something one should note

 

 

Relation 's maiden voyage

Time is drawing near

Patched up those minor leaks

There's nothing now fear

 

 

Sea is blue and calm

The visibility is clear

But the barometer is falling

A storm is drawing near

 

 

The sea starts to churn

Waves crash across it's bow

I want to save “Relation.”

But I really don't how

 

 

Water stalls the engine

Now were dead at sea

Have to cast the life rafts

To save my sanity

 

 

I watch as our "Relation"

Slowly slips below a wave

Tears fall from my eyes

As it sinks to its water grave

 

 

This ship has taught me something

To carry a lifeboat when I go

For if “Relation” starts A sinkin

You better damn know how to row.!
