We saw each other four times
We slept together once
I felt she was the balanced one
And that I was the dunce

She wanted me, I wanted her
But it was not to be
From me was too much clamour
From her was too much peace

She was shaved, I wasn’t
And she accepted me
I’m suspicious of acceptance
Though she’d have let me be

She said; ‘Should I be different?’
I didn’t patronise
When I said; ‘Never, ever,
It’s me that’s the wrong size’

She wished me well on parting
And I wished her the same
We’re all looking for someone
I hate this fucking game

We saw each other four times
We slept together once
I felt she was the balanced one
And that I was the dunce
