The girl who works for the BBC

There is this girl who works for the BBC
Who long ago started to rather obsess me

Of course I knew her before she worked at the BBC
But even then it often struck me
That she was destined to work for the BBC

This girl who works at the BBC
She is extremely intelligent you see
I used to run, keep fit and carry poems with me
Just to impress this girl who works at the BBC

After a particularly bad break up
I emailed the girl at the BBC
And the emails which were written by me
Were always drafted several times before they were sent to this girl who works at the BBC

Recently, I found out that the girl who works for the BBC
Is in a relationship with a middle aged man and not me

But none of this matters
Because the girl still works for the BBC
As for me?
Well, I am still sitting here dreaming about the girl who works for the BBC
