Cupid, He's Called

A pink little cherub flies around in the nude,
of course when it's cold he's a blue little dude.
He has a bow and arrows in a quiver,
but misses his target cause the cold makes him shiver.

Cupid he's called, I guess that's his name,
and pairing up lovers, it's said is his game.
He often unites the wrong gal and guy,
for a marksman he's not, and he shoots on the fly.

So if you're with someone and even up close,
you no longer notice the wart on their nose,
it could be an arrow from Cupid has hit,
and target or not you're stuck with it.

You'll have mushy feelings that you think are cool,
while others observing are seeing a fool.
Sooner or later though, they'll feel just like you,
Cause that sneaky cherub is stalking them too.

Stan's Arrow

I ordered a beer, took a drink, then got my change
Then I noticed some sad eyed feller lookin' at me strange
"I deal in unrequited love" I said to the man
"I'm cupids older brother that ole' rat bastard Stan"
I would give my teeth and toenails to have my brothers job
But, no, I have to work with our cousin, Heart-break Bob
That girl next door you thought about? well thats what I do
Your 5th grade english teacher...Sorry guilty too
I never get good credit, I always take the blame
It's not my fault I have one arrow for every guy and dame.
