<br>
I have the worst apprehension<br>
That you don't crave my attention,<br>
But I can't force you to change your taste.<br>
If you don't care to be nice, dear,<br>
Then give me air, but not ice, dear.<br>
Don't let a good fellow go to waste.<br>
For this little sin that you commit at leisure,<br>
You'll repent in haste.<br>
If my heart gets in your hair,<br>
You mustn't kick it around.<br>
If you're bored with this affair,<br>
You mustn't kick it around.<br>
Even though I mild and meek<br>
When we have a brawl,<br>
If I turn the other cheek<br>
You mustn't kick it at all.<br>
When I try to ring the bell,<br>
You never care for the sound.<br>
The next guy may not do as well,<br>
You mustn't kick it around.<br>
 <br>
