Story Behind The Song
I hate dating. I always have hated it... I started thinking of it as a challenge to find what was funny and what went wrong, because something always does.
Song Description
dating is habitually annoying, and it is quite comic if you think about it. some dates are funny, some are scary, but all are worth reflecting on and finding the lighter side.

Lyrics
Dating Scene
Music & Lyrics by Tonya Leigh Showalter
v1: Dates 1 and 2, awkward, unsure, hopeful that there will be something more. Then there's a kiss, so clumsy and fake, but still years the heart of fate.
v2: Dates 3 and 4, still looking for more, sure that she'll find there's more to adore. There there's a kiss with gusto galore, hands reaching out for more.
v3: Dates 5 and 6, you see there's no more. He is what he is and there is no cure. No kiss goodbye, just run for the door. It was worth a shot once more.
v4: Dates 1 and 2, again it begins. This time will count, 'cause you were fast friends. But no, he can't kiss, and you want no more. What is there now, I'm unsure.
v5: Then a blind date, but he's 4 foot 8, I admit I was looking for more. His hair was long but his I.Q. was short. Ten minutes, then out the door.
v6: A comic routine is the dating scene. You see, it's invented by men. But it plays its part in breaking some hearts and creating laughs with friends.
