Going Shopping With the Wife
 
By Elton Camp
 
There’s nothing like going to the mall
Oh my, how much longer can she stall
 
How many more dresses can she try on
And how much longer can she be gone
 
Husbands gather at the food court & sit
It won’t do a bit of good to have a fit
 
After an outfit the wife does choose
She must have matching purse & shoes
 
And then the husband must assume
She’s selecting a new brand of perfume
 
Then she’ll stay at the cosmetics a while
To her spouse, it is such a tiresome trial
 
What he needed he bought right away
It surely didn’t take him half the day
 
When she goes to the bathroom, no doubt
It will never be like him:  quick in and out
 
When the shopping ordeal is finally through
It’s a day spent in a way the hubby does rue
