Clean Movie 

I had a date the other night 

A good impression was in sight 

Heard he was a religious man 

I had to watch what I said 

Tried to be on my best behavior 

And wanted to do things in his favor  

I looked up clean movies for him 

All I could find was love, lust, and mayhem 

I  got tired of looking for ideas 

So I asked,” Do you know Madea?” 

He didn’t know of her 

So I introduced this kind sir 

Wasn’t sure of this movie he’d see 

Just hoping it was clean as could be 

She had a few choice words 

He laughed and showed he was no nerd 

Madea taught him a thing or two 

Ugly words can be funny, too 

Madea is sly and full of tricks 

Her movies will always be my pick
