What women want.

What women want.

A Poem by Paul Bell

He knew what women wanted
After all, he was a man of the world
None of that namby pamby stuff for his woman
Oh no, he was a practical man
So when she opened her presents
To find an iron and a hoover
She was ecstatic
She was that ecstatic
That when he came home the next day
To find his shirts pressed
The house spotless
Her gone
He couldn’t believe it.

That was a novel way to get rid of her! I bet he couldn't believe his luck! And did he also have the iron and hoover?

Bound to be some guy out there with two broken legs.
Well I mean what did he expect. Besides freshly ironed clothes. Next time instead of cleaning supplies, try the 'home decor' section. lol
