Have you ever met a guy
And thought, ‘Oh my!
I wish I’d met him
Before _________!’
Did you get close
And think, ‘Oh gross!
I sure thank God
I met ________ first!’
Have you ever met a Sis
And thought, ‘Oh bliss!
Why oh why
Did I choose _________?’
Then you got close
And thought, ‘Overdose!
At least with _________
I know I’m safe.’
Have you ever met a bro
And thought, ‘No way!
My heart can’t stray
Why, he’s too short!’
Then you got close
And slowly found
Your heart’s been bound
And you don’t want to be free.
Have you ever met a Sis
And thought, ‘Never!
I’m just too clever
And I have self-control.’
So you got really close
And noticed too late
That you can’t concentrate
And… it simply feels good.
Slowly but surely
You cannot say how
________ loses flavour
And another you savour.
‘No big deal’ you may say
It’s just a new friendship
But beware, oh beware
It is surely a snare.
It once was taboo, and
We all stood against it
But adultery is now gain
And the Body’s in great pains.
Marriage is honourable
The bed undefiled
That’s how God would have it
Let’s humbly submit!
