WHEN IT COMES TO JOHN

I avoid uncertainty - I like things to add up
 Life needs careful planning, I don’t believe in luck
 I keep things in order so that everything will fit
 I stay away from drama, and things I can’t predict
  
 I dislike like surprises, I like to feel prepared
 Unexpected turns make me feel a little scared
 I make sensible decisions, weigh up the pros and cons
 But it all goes out the window, when it comes to John
  
  I try hard not to let myself be led a merry dance
 I didn’t get where I am now by leaving things to chance
 I enjoy a story where everything works out
 Those cliff-hanger endings, I can live without
  
 I’m wary of the unknown – I don’t go there any more
 I like to know precisely what tomorrow has in store
 I like things neat and tidy to keep me feeling strong
 But it all goes out the window, when it comes to John
  
  I like to think I’m logical and I can clearly see
 when a situation won’t be good for me
 I dodge the unfamiliar, the vague and the unclear
 I don’t trust what I can’t touch or see or hear
  
 So I’m cautious with affection, I consider all the risks
 I wait for weeks or months, before offering a kiss
 But my reason takes it’s leave, my self-control’s all gone
 All gone out the window, when it comes to John
