Romance Is Sublime (spoof)

Wallace Dean LaBenne

Happily ever after
Once upon a time
Sunshine, joy and laughter
Romance is sublime
Everyone is ethical
Absent any crime
Pure, sweet and lyrical
Romance is sublime
Opulent financial state
Health is strictly prime
Ideal home, kids and mate
Romance is sublime
Politics is squeaky clean
Gone is filthy slime
Scrupulous, fair and keen
Romance is sublime
Excellence is typical
Perfection all mime
Soft, hard and physical
Romance is sublime
