Gooseberry When they rang to invite you out Why didn't you hesitate 'Cos you know they're a couple now And it'd be like a date And while you still like their company Their baby talk makes you gag And when they get down to pashing on You're gonna feel like a dag 'Cos they're such a cute couple Your angle's obtuse What was once equilateral Is bent out of use Now in this tragic triad You're the minor third And the giggling sounds absurd You're the odd one out One of these things Just doesn't belong here Two of these things are having a snog So you stare every other way
Because you don't want to gawk You ought to bail out and head for home Except it's too far to walk When they suggest a trapezium Their pity adds to your gloom Because they both try to set you up With every dag in the room Two of these things are going the tongue Now as you adore every flaw in the wall And the ceiling's appealing to you You notice that some of squares On the other two sides have been Room gazing too and soon you're aware That each pa**ionate pair Has a solitary sad case in tow Each agonizing whether it's best To be the odd one out Or the odd one at home
