I think there has been a terrible disconnect somewhere. I'm here to set the record straight!
First Wife
We had the best of them
Exciting and virile
When they "performed" naturally
And could for quite a while
They had full heads of hair
Bellies firm, bodies wrinkle free
Their youth and beauty ours
Not one infirmity
That second wife can gladly have
The second hand man
Popping pills for nightly thrills
With their shortened life-span
Worried about everything
Insecure fool and a joke
Thinning hair a turn off
Bits and pieces broke
Expanding unattractive girth
Little do the ex and second know
Don't let the secret out,
It was us that let them go...
First wives confidence grows
In later years they'll shine
For their best is yet to come
While the exes just decline...
