It was a date or so I thought
One that I cancelled just yesterday
It had been arranged by a friend
And who it was I had no say
I had heard that the girl was large
Overweight would be kind words for her
I know I shouldn’t be so disrespectful
But for her it wouldn’t be a slur
I had some thoughts on what to do
Confused by doing the gentlemanly thing
It was only coffee or a drink
Alas I said no and didn’t think
Needless to say believing rumors is bad
For I discovered the intended was quite a beauty
I lost my chance to meet Miss Right
Because I failed my sacred duty
No doubt I’ll never do the same
I’ll take the time to now be good
For I now know that you never know
Even when you think you should
