LOVING MEN

I saw my friend the other night
I said: How’s things? Are you all right?
She said: It’s over – and I knew what she meant
Another affair with wet cement
She said: At first their love matches yours
But it only lasts the time of dinosaurs
In the history of the earth

She said: I can’t do this stuff again
I’m tired of dealing with the pain
I don’t like being chased and bedded
I wind up feeling sad and shredded
I just won’t take the risk again
This hit-and-run heartbreak of loving men

I said: Listen, they’re not the same
There’s no point in trying to lay the blame
We’re in love with love, it gives us wings
They’re only into abstract things
She said: What happened to treasured and special
I said: that’s always been bollocks, an empty vessel
She said: At first their love matches yours
But it only lasts the time of dinosaurs
In the history of the earth

She said: I won’t take love on those terms
It’s like being eaten by lethal worms
I don’t want to do it ever again
This fucking fiasco of loving men
This fiasco of loving men ……
