Freds boss was joking around.
It was funny because we
Knew he was kidding.
In your dreams mister, his wife said.
Yes. Fred could turn a disagreement
About something miniscule
Into him "deserving" a girlfriend
Who tended to him once in a while.
Go and visit Aberdeen harbour.
I did not say it because I knew
To not entertain his after work moods
And wait until he calmed down.
I would say oh me me me,
On my way upstairs
And he would say oh you you YOU.
It was actually annoying
Because it is not something
You say to get a reply.
It was Fred. I am on top.
I get the last word.
