Susan Faludi
(Dean)
I saw Susan Faludi
on the cover of a magazine
she didn't look academic
or like a homecoming queen
standing with Gloria Steinem
& saying "cheese"
I saw Susan Faludi
on the cover of a magazine
She doesn't seem pretentious
but she definitely is smart
& she has a sense of humor
setting her apart
from stoically serious feminists
with cold & bitter hearts
she doesn't seem pretentious
& she definitely is smart
Her book is a best seller
they say it's touched a nerve
yet not all worthy books
get what they deserve
Hollywood won't make a movie
starring Catherine Deneuve
form any best-selling book
that touches a nerve
I've got a crush on Susan
& if she doesn't mind
I'll say it in this song
unabashedly resigned
to my unrequited like
unlikely returned in kind
I've got a crush on Susan
& I hope she doesn't mind
