One Thing Worse

There's only one thing worse than a lawyer,
that's a failed lawyer, permanent chip, disaster,
then there's dubious sexual orientation, okay,
maybe Celtic, not capable of holding any sway.

You stayed, decided to stick things out today, 
when it would have been better if you'd gone away;
we made love in the missionary position, ole',
should have expanded our horizons so they say.
 
I like worrying about trivia, I'm not tall,
it's bad if you have nothing to worry about at all;
I'm away on holiday in exotic locations,
avoid an entourage with dubious relations.

Then there's you, so smart, full of diversity,
the one thing worse in all this trauma is me.
