Paige

You have your nice and fancy suitors,    
I know I could not compete    
With their charm and their chiseled looks    
I am rendered obsolete.    
   
(blank verse)    
   
You have your informal social group    
I know to them I'm a geek    
So I don't try, left out of the loop    
It's too painful to speak.    
   
(pause)    
   
Every time I walk into the bank    
I see you're sexy, then I know my rank    
In the hook up scene    
Then I hang my head in shame    
I can never match your sculpted ginger    
And, I am homely just the same.
   
   
I have my limerence, not much else    
I only offer to you    
But I know you crave someone else    
Someone who is not a fool.    
   
.... (pause/blank verse)    
   
Oh, Every time I walk into the bank    
I see you're sexy, then I know my rank    
In the hook up scene    
Then I hang my head in shame    
I can never match your sculpted ginger    
And, I am homely just the same.

A latest track I laid down about a gal named Paige. (Put to royalty free music - I wrote the lyrics and sing it) Part of a series on Male Body Image.
