Never Let Your Left Hand Know

Never Let Your Left Hand Know
Quizmo LaGrande

Never let your left hand know what your right is doing.
Very good advice, to any lady who’s persuing
A fine and handsome gent who is interested and cooing
For the damsel’s lovely hand; who pops the question while canoeing.

I’d say, critical in married life, ‘cause he’s the left, you’re the right.
Let him think your standing clueless; let him think he sees the light.
While all the while you do the bidding; all the while you know the truth.
As he proudly struts his stuff, just coyly sip on your vermouth.

Yes, never let your left hand know what your right is doing.
A near impossible endeavor unless you keep the cauldron brewing.
Ladies, just remember the timely words of that old saying...
Righty-tighty, lefty-loosey—dear, it’s a clever game we are persuing!
