the hearts of girls are loyal to degrees
and pledged forever solely for the hype
as long as loyalty returns to please
their vows are made with most simplistic ease
their ears are deaf to all contrary gripes
the hearts of girls are loyal to degrees
though vowed so unconditional, the fees
will come conditional till ripe
as long as loyalty returns to please
yet otherwise no begging pleas of please
can change the change of heart, their spots to stripes
the hearts of girls are loyal to degrees
and as the Queen is goddess of the bees
her final word will turn all others tripe
as long as loyalty returns to please
and when it stops the men fall to their knees
rejected, from girl's memories are wiped
the hearts of girls are loyal to degrees
as long as loyalty returns to please
(C)2009, Christos Rigakos
