Текст песни An Unlikely Pairing - TurtleFrogMan
She was on the high school cheerleading squad
I was a high school stoner
She is a social butterfly
And I'm just a bit of a loner
She can talk her way out of a traffic citation
And I'm who judge throws the book at
She possesses a genuine beauty and
I've never been much to look at
She loves to dress up for formal occasions
And I don't even like to wear pants
I have perverted sexual appetites
She's a big fan of romance
I'm just being honest, I hope you'll forgive me
I have no intent to disparage
She was out of my league and we wouldn't have dated
But she had kids from a previous marriage
And that opened the door for me: fifteen years older
Two marriages, each a divorce
Some friends of ours scheduled drinks after work
With a large group of others, of course
We worked at the same place, downtown Dallas Texas
In a skyscraper, twenty-first floor
I was an well-paid computer programmer
She a single mom searching for more
And she hated me after this debut encounter
'Cause I was arrogant, rude and profane
See, I was nervous about it and in preparation
I did several lines of cocaine
But I worked my way slowly back in her good graces
I wined her and dined her and wooed her
And convinced her that I could provide a good life
On the back of my trusty computer
We were an unlikely pairing
She's gracious, and kind I'm drunk and obnoxious and I've got a bad habit of swearing
We were an unlikely pairing
I'm a creature of habit, I don't stray far from home yet she is tenacious and daring
Separately we are as different as water and air
But together we are an unlikely pair
And now twenty years later we're happily married
But boy I could tell you some tales
My computer career has come to an end
But she's making a killing in sales
She wants to pursue her advancing career
In the city and thus the plot thickens
Cause I'm ready to retire on a couple of acres
In the country with piggies and chickens
When we got married she was practically jailbait
Just old enough to buy liquor
Which explains why we're currently locked in a stalemate
But she will emerge as the victor
Growing old's not a joke, what if I have a stroke
I'll need compassion and caring
And besides I really love her so I'm hers till I croak
And we sever this unlikely pairing
We were an unlikely pairing
Like mustard and strawberry shortcake or root beer and red pickled herring
We were an unlikely pairing
It's shocking we seem to be faring as well as we seem to be faring
Separately we are as different as water and air
But together we are an unlikely pair
