I LIKE YOU
I don't like biscuits without gravy
alright, with lots of butter maybe
I don't like okra in a stew
but I like you
I don't like bells that don't ring
birds that don't sing
I don't like tales that aren't true
but I like you
I don't like drinkers when they're drunk
rockers when they're punk
I don't like lovers when they're through
but I like you
I don't like dictators when they kill
oil rigs when they spill
I don't like to see you blue
because I like you
I don't like flowers that don't bloom
a day full of gloom
I don't like sport fans that boo
but I like you
I don't like rappers when they rhyme
music out of time
I don't like list of things to do
but I like you
I don't like politicians when they lie
good friends when they say bye
I don't like celebrities with their own guru
but I like you
I don't like skies that aren't blue
unless it's a sunset with you
I don't like the thought of not being two
because I will always like you
