figuring women to the crossed t's and dotted i's

when you've got the time
and anything can be done while you're waiting
over your shoulder or across the room
the girls'll be talking
(like they do)
and somehow, you know it's a strange new language
that you don't understand
so you've got to sit there
monk-quiet and listen careful
like you don't bother normally
and lean it down
like your pulling on a beer
and finally,
when you've got it down
all the slang these girls today use
you know what they're really saying about
the men they're really talking about
and sometimes, when i count it down
and get it pat, so i know for sure
what means what and
this and that
you just wish you didn't.

at least i do.
