HE SAID, SHE SAID WE SAID.

Some cultures, people, go to great lengths to explain the why's and what's it all about, so much so they are charcters in words.

Oh be an onlooker if you want

when he said she said

that's when we said

and really that is where

you should have come in

instead of sitting there

just gawking.

When he said that she said

you just left it for what we said,

when you should have been a man

you could have stood up

and opened your mouth,

but you sat there with a grin

trying not very hard to look dim.

She was only repeating

what he had just said

you could have told them

to shut up

sit down

but you sat down instead.

That's when we came in

when we said

we could not leave it there

not like you

with nothing in your head

just sit and stare,

well the nothing you said

was like a question mark

but one

without a dot,

all it needed

was your 'Shut up.'

but you stayed sitting down,

you did that well

looked after yourself

sat there like a book

sitting on a shelf.

Well I hope your happy that he said

and the mess it caused

when she said,

all we said

was common sense

when all they wanted was to hear

was what you might have said

but instead

you sat there

gawking instead

I think that's enough said,

no point opening your mouth now!

because he said she said

and that we have

already said,

at least that will do for now.
