Out of the Blue
Every one I know has a girl friend
Every one except me
And that is why for special occasions
I don’t like to go by the family
Because they will always ask me
If she’s out side parking the car
And I will always have to make an excuse
How she gone to see her mother
But inside I wish I had a girlfriend
Because my life is so lonely
The only thing I have is my poems
That is all that keesp me company
I been looking for one secretly
But finding one is a problem
Cause so far no girl’s like me
But I can’t really blame them
I went shopping for this Christmas
Buying gifts all for my self
Then come and open my closet
And stack them all on a shelf
When I walking through Macy’s
Upstairs in the Staten Island mall
I wish I had a girlfriend with me
To take her shopping and buy her all
So I’m looking for a girl friend
But one is so had to find
The last girl I ask out on a date
She ask “if she look stupid or blind
I once ask a Trinidad girl
But she curse me up right away
Then she even call the police
And I had to run out of Claxton bay
Another girl had a flat tire
So I help she change it yesterday
But when I ask what she doing later
She takes out a can of pepper spray
Since then I lost my confidence
Because I’m really kind of shy
So now I stand in the corner watching
When I see a nice girl passing by
I search the borough of New York
Even over the Bayonne in New Jersey
I even try some online dating
But I struck out miserably
So I call and ask my nephew riad
To find me a girl in Trinidad
He said “boy them women in Trinidad crazy
But none of them women eh that mad
Sugar boy has a girlfriend in siparia
She has a sister living down in penal
He tells me send my best picture
Then said “boy that girl eh like you at all
So this Christmas I have a dilemma
And I don’t know what to do
All of my friends have girlfriends
And I want to have one to
But I will keep on trying
It’s the only thing I can do
And one day out of the blue
I will find me a nice girl friend to
