The rot set in with the Ten Commandments

Setting standards that can never be met

Its the same when it comes to women

There's always one that you can't forget

 

Benchmark woman you haunt me

None ever compared with your charms

Lovely women come and lovely women go

None repeated such magic in my arms

 

A prototype female is a bit of a burden

A touchstone to make your life hell

You'll never encounter another

To massage your ego half so well

 

Benchmark woman you haunt me

None ever compared with your charms

Lovely women come and lovely women go

None repeated such magic in my arms

 

My life's been a quest for that paragon

The search is getting academic now I'm old

If I met her carbon copy tomorrow

She'd leave my ancient hormones cold

 

Benchmark woman you haunt me

None ever compared with your charms

Lovely women come and lovely women go

None repeated such magic in my arms
