refrigerator magnet poetry inspiration

If the phone don't ring
Then you'll know it's me
Oh no, she's acting single
And I'm drinking doubles
If love were oil, I'd be a quart low
I'm pretty sure I liked you better before

If your glove doesn't fit
Then you'll know this is it
Oh no, she's getting fussy
And I'm your favorite hussy
If love were hot weather, then I'm bound to snow
I'm pretty sure I liked you better before

If your gearshift gets stuck
Then you've cashed in on luck
Oh no, she'll call you baby
And I'll just call me crazy
If love were drugs then I'm a bad batch of blow
I'm pretty sure I liked you better before

If your fridge gets all hot
Then you'll see what I'm not
Oh no, she's one to covet
But I'll just rise above it
If love were parked cars then I'm getting towed
I'm pretty sure I liked you better before

If your doorknob breaks
Then you've found your mistake
Oh no, she's causing problems
And I'm not gonna solve them
If love was climbing stairs then I'm ten steps below
I'm pretty sure I liked you better before

If your camera won't click
Then you're bout to get sick
Oh no, she's so demanding
But my mind is expanding
If love's in hyper speed, then I'm taking it slow
I'm pretty sure I liked you better before

If you just found your keys
Then you'll know it's me
Oh yes, her words are taunting
And I'm the one you're wanting
If love is a stage then we're bout to start the show
I think I like you just as much as before
