Le coup du lapin

She walks into the bar
You've been waiting for an hour
You've already had 7 coffees
You have tics, tremors

Barely seated, she tells you
We can't stay long
You would have preferred all night
She doesn't share your feelings

You give her sick deer eyes
She looks at her watch
While you talk, her phone 'beeps'
She doesn't mind interrupting you

Another girl waits alone at the end of the bar
You stood up, too busy to see her
You stare at the other one talking loudly on the phone
You feel invisible, you're not wrong!

She hangs up due to low battery
You start stalking her again
She tells you about her life
You play the captivated guy really well!

She's a bit of a model
A bit of an actress, a bit of a waitress
She's a bit pretentious, a bit selfish
A bit of a tease

But she's pretty
You'd like to know her 'biblically'
Biblically in poetry
It means 'to dent' simply

At the bar, the girl stood up waits
Looking closer, she's pretty too
You would find her adorable, and something priceless
She turns off her phone when she's in good company

But it's the other one you desire
You decide to make a move
Her answer is 'no'
She rejects your application

She forgot to tell you
She already has a boyfriend
It finishes crushing you
It's the neck snap

Dressed for winter
You took a big hit
It's more like a parka
With a Gore-Tex lining!

The girl who stood up pays for her drink
She's had enough
You finally notice her as she leaves the bar
Too late!
