Mike listened and grinned like he’d just won the Federation Lottery. When she finished, he stood up and started walking to her… but veered off and picked up his bass. Smiling he said “Tempting…” and he began plucking the bass stings. Canary concentrated for a moment, then her face split into a wide grin and Bubba yelled “HELL YES PUNK ROCK!!!” and the band started playing and Mike began singing.

I’ll be the ticket if you’re my collector
I’ve got the fare if you’re my inspector
I’ll be the luggage, you’ll be the porter
I’ll be the parcel if you’ll be my sorter

Just for you here’s a love song
Just for you here’s a love song
And it makes me glad to say
It’s been a lovely day and it’s okay

I’ll be the mail, you’ll be the guard
I’ll be the ink on your season ticket card
I’ll be the rubbish, you’ll be the bin
I’ll be the paint on the sign if you’ll be the tin

Just for you here’s a love song
Just for you here’s a love song
And it makes me glad to say
It’s been a lovely day and it’s okay

Just for you here’s a love song
Just for you here’s a love song
And it makes me glad to say
It’s been a lovely day and it’s okay
It’s okay
It’s okay

Revna could go anywhere she wanted, she’d issued the bet, the only thing she had to do was not touch him. She walked up the steps picked up the bodhran and began the rhythm and Ada, Kirsten, Ragna and Runa along with every other woman began to laugh. And then a guitar was heard picking up the melody. Walking past Mike she said, loud enough for everyone to hear, “This is what a woman wants.”

Any man of mine better be proud of me
Even when I’m ugly, he still better love me
And I can be late for a date that’s fine
But he better be on time
Any man of mine’ll say it fits just right
When last year’s dress is just a little too tight
And anything I do or say better be okay
When I have a bad hair day

Cuyler and Oddvar were laughing hard enough to be heard over the music. Cuyler called out, “YOU’RE IN TROUBLE NOW, MIKE!”

And if I change my mind
A million times
I want to hear him say
Yeah (yeah), yeah (yeah), yeah, I like it that way
Any man of mine better walk the line
Better show me a teasin’ squeezin’ pleasin’ kinda time
I need a man who knows, how the story goes
He’s gotta be a heartbeatin’ fine treatin’
Breathtakin’ earthquakin’ kind
Any man of mine

Well any man of mine better disagree
When I say another woman’s lookin’ better than me
And when I cook him dinner and I burn it black
He better say, mm, I like it like that, yeah

And if I change my mind
A million times
I want to hear him say
Yeah (yeah), yeah (yeah), yeah I like it that way
Any man of mine better walk the line
Better show me a teasin’ squeezin’ pleasin’ kinda time
I need a man who knows, how the story goes
He’s gotta be a heartbeatin’ fine treatin’
Breathtakin’ earthquakin’ kind
Any man of mine, woo

Let me hear you say yeah (yeah), yeah (yeah)
Yeah, I like it that way
any man of mine better walk the line
Better show me a teasin’ squeezin’ pleasin’ kinda time
I need a man who knows, how the story goes
He’s gotta be a heartbeatin’ fine treatin’
Breathtakin’ earthquakin’ kind
Any man of mine

The next part was picked up by the whole crowd, totally engrossed in the play between Mike and Revna now. Runa linked arms with Ragna and just stared and then leaned over, “Look at that! She’s…she’s....what did Mike do to Revna?” Ragna laughed, “Go find a McKenzie man, Runa and you’ll figure it out.”

Ooh, ah
Woo
Ooh, ah
You gotta shimmy shake
Make the earth quake
Kick, turn, stomp, stomp, then you jump
Heel to toe, do si do
‘Til your boots want to break
‘Til your feet and your back ache
Keep it movin’ ‘til you just can’t take anymore
Come on everybody on the floor
One two, a-three four
Hup, two, hup, woo
Mmhmm
If you want to be a man of mine, that’s right, woo
This is what a woman wants
