identity crisis
by Shonda CreemerI once knew this guy named
Barney
every time we talked I thought
of that annoying purple dino
with his catchy little tune
{"I love you, You love me
we're a happy family..."}
you get the picture
He made me fall in love with him
~the man, not the dinosaur ~
promised me that he would wear a
purple tux on our wedding day
He ran off the Florida to try
and find himself ~ came back a
different creature ~ must have
been those alligators
too bad, because purple has
always been my favorite color
green only comes in third 06/10/2005 Author's Note: true story

Some guys just don't know a good women when they find one. Yeah, I'm not too fond of gators either.
