But alas it was only the wives and not the husbands giving him a second look.

[Preston, Moderator]

So he tossed his fishing line in the pond until he got a guy on the hook.

[Preston, Moderator]

So he reeled him until he could see he caught a handsome merman.

[Roger]

After a break you expect me to follow the above! I'll see if I can.

[Roger]

It wasn't such a bad flight, I have to be fair,

[Roger]

Flying to Madrid with dear old Oirish Ryanair,

[Roger]

Though it was to be our fate

[Roger]

To set off and arrive forty minutes late.

[Roger]

But few things are as romantic as the light of the moon

[Roger]

Shining down on the plaza and fountains of Neptune.

[Preston, Moderator]

Everyone knows Neptune is in the sea.

[Preston, Moderator]

You think he's in space? You can't fool me.

[Preston, Moderator]

I know my gods like sailor knows a fish.

[Preston, Moderator]

And to have a hottie sailor is my greatest wish.

[Preston, Moderator]

When he's in port he can always be found,

[Preston, Moderator]

but when he's sea he isn't around.

[Preston, Moderator]

So I love my sailor when he's away,

[Preston, Moderator]

and the earthy men and I get to play.

[Roger]

I guess if he's at sea, he can't be around,

[Roger]

Not till his ship sails into the sound.

[Roger]

That's when you recall, last time how hard you fought,

[Roger]

Cos it's true what they say: sailors have a boy in every port.

[Preston, Moderator]

Cowboys have a cowboy in every cowboy hat,

[Preston, Moderator]

[Preston, Moderator]

[Roger]

Do they ever grow lonesome by any means,

[Roger]

Crouched round their fire eating baked beans?

[Roger]

Unless, of course, they get together on the ground for a roll,

[Roger]

One, two or even three… whatever, all for Andy Warhol.

[Preston, Moderator]

I don't think Andy Warhol liked baked beans,

[Preston, Moderator]

But he'd paint them for he believed in art by any means.

[Preston, Moderator]

Still Andy loved his mother and his cat,

[Preston, Moderator]

He even loved Jean-Michel Basquiat

[Roger]

Andy loved cheap decorator's paint

[Roger]

(don't tell collectors less they fall in a faint),

[Roger]

But he claimed his works wouldn't stand the test of time

[Roger]

Before Marilyn and baked beanz flaked off leaving behind only lime.

[Preston, Moderator]

But they're preserved forever in this rhyme,

[Preston, Moderator]

Have you seen his Empire State Building movie?

[Preston, Moderator]

8 hours of nothing happening sure is groovy.

[Preston, Moderator]

I really like his silk screens...

[Preston, Moderator]

I've seen bis beanz and Marilyn screens,

[Roger]

And all the rest that no one knows what it means,

A Bosch is at Metropolitan Museum New York City,
