Belinda from Tinder
Looked out the winda
Thinking ‘bout a fella
She had swiped last night
He texted he’d collected
The Star Wars cast; “perfected”
A PHD in coding
And he's always right
Belinda wants “an honest man,
With flowing hair, all over tan
A love of fresh oysters
And a good appetite”
Covering his bald patch
Thought she was a good catch
So the Coder and Belinda
Scored a date for that night
They met at his apartment
And to his room they both went
To scan his figurines
Posed with military intent
Chewbacca was a giant dog
And Yoda sat upon a log
Han Solo struck priapic pose
But then the Coder’s ego froze
She tapped upon his laptop
Danced a little hip hop
He flushed and made excuses
The Blaster needs a gun prop
Belinda from Tinder
looked out the winda
Waiting for the coder
To come back upright
(— 16 bars, bass and piano, strum——)
30 later courage found
Marching in.. wired to the ground
Sensed her chin held hints of stubble
Scrolling down ran into trouble
He cursored over hidden pointer
Paused a mo’ to reconnoitre.
Chilled to the bone in carbonite
Froze in horror at the sight
Belinda from Tinder
Looked out the winda
Waiting for the coder
To see the light
“I’m Bob” she said to crumpled coder,
With James Earl’s tone, that classy smoulder
“You're a man!” The coder cried,
“Your download caught me by surprise!”
“Your profile didn't show this fact.”
“I’m bits of both” Belinda rapped,
“You're profile says you have a tan,
But all I see is Jabba spam!”
“Go now In-Vader
Out of my sight.”
“Mmmmmmm”, she mused
“Solo tonight?”

She had crashed last night.
