Fred In His Forties

Fred in his forties like an aging rutting stag
To his pub mates of his sexual conquests in the local does brag
Too naive to see through them since in prudence he does lack
They feign interest on his stories and laugh behind his back

Their laughter in his presence they manage to disguise
Since they know most of his stories are imaginary lies
Even as a sex symbol he has no claim to local renown
Though he fancies himself as a top stud of the town

Fred and his wife of twenty years Kate have one daughter Eileen
Who on her last birthday turned nineteen
But Kate has a lover his name is Ted
She confided in her friends Fred cannot satisfy her in bed

Fred in his forties tells his mates in the local bar
How to find his equal as a lover a woman would need to travel far
But Fred in wisdom and prudence does seem to lack
Since he does not realize they laugh behind his back.
