Sweet and Sour

You said if I were a salad you wouldn’t give a toss
Vinegar words served up in such a chilly sauce
I over-egged the pudding when I said it was your fault
You said you’d have to take my words with a pinch of salt

Sweet and sour, we had our love on a plate
Until the hour we passed our sell by date
Sweet and sour, to be loved then hated
We blended at first but then we just grated

You put me in a pickle I put you in a jam
I tried to curry favour, you acted like an innocent lamb
My anger simmered inside you left yours to stew
Then they all boiled over, hot as vindaloo

Sweet and sour, we had our love on a plate
Until the hour we passed our sell by date
Sweet and sour, to be loved then hated
We blended at first but then we just grated

Sweet and sour, we should have set some alerts
To tell us how we’d had our just desserts
