JUST
A DAMSEL IN DISTRESS
Now
she comes in here each night,
And
looking quite the sight,
In
her tight blue jeans and her faded smile,
And
she won’t admit she’s out of style.
At
a place of mid-life fears,
Drinking
down a life of tears,
On
the bar stool in the corner;
Barbie’s
just a damsel in distress.
Traveling
in the fast lane in her youth,
Doing
booze with gin and vermouth.
Won’t
accept her time is coming to an end.
She
still looks for white knights around the bend.
On
the outside looking in
Of
her glass of mixed up gin,
She’s
giving all the signals of
A
damsel in distress.
Ken
comes in here each night,
And
he’s looking none too bright.
In
his western boots and his cowboy hat,
His
hair is thin, and his stomach’s fat.
'Round
the bar room, he steers,
In
the winter of his years
To
a place just next to Barbie,
To
rescue the damsel in distress.
