No.289
2nd March 2003
-- Supply & Demand --

There's a shortage of good workers in the land
So that the chance of seeing me is pretty slim
So put your foot right down and make a stand
'I will not work today - I'm seeing him'

So if you can't do this then what's to be
The fate of this liaison 'twixt thee and me
Is 'I need you but..' all that I'll ever see?
To live in hope, to be my destiny?

So come on darling we must find the time
To live, to love and taste the summer wine
I need you now to give me just this sign
So that we together can our lives align

Her: Hey slow down baby we were doing fine
But what's all this about the summer wine?
Perhaps sometimes we could go out and dine
But what makes you think that I'd want you as mine?

Oh nothing much, the kisses, touch of hands
The temperature that rises when we meet
Perhaps it's just that I don't understand
That this ecstatic rise of temperature has no heat

So darling you have got to prove me wrong
Else soon we'll reach the end of this sad song
When all this started though we did not intend
Let's make it now a song without an end
