Contraducktions

Maitre'd chased the duck away - 
she had no sense of humor 
She said I couldn't have a seat for two
because I was alone

While Pavarotti sang in state
the waitress did not know him
An Italian restaurant,
which knew the master not

Every good place has a duck - 
or two to act as greeters
And let the wondering patrons know
the food & bed are sweeter

The Ducks were kind
the waitress blind
I felt unwelcome here

But Luciano sang his tune
and I had wine not beer
