in spite of ourselves, we'll end up sittin' on a rainbow.

would you care to take a guess at whose joke this is?

So, there's a man.
He was one good eye and one wood eye (tragic accident, poor technology).
Because of his condition, he's a bit self-conscious - doesn't get out much, rarely dates.

One day, he finally gets invited to a singles dance by some coworkers. It takes him about a week to build up the courage but he finally says yes. He gets his suit dry cleaned, his hair cut, and gives himself a shave. Upon arriving at the dance (a bit late), he immediately regrets his decision - everyone is having a good time and everyone seems to be paired up. He feels self conscious so decides to stick to the sidelines, safely observing the spectacle.

After a little while, the man spots a lady. Perhaps his soul mate?

She is standing across the dance hall, in a beautiful dress, clinging to the wall - just like him! He decides to approach her and makes his way across the floor - meekly, but with confidence gaining. As he approaches her, he realizes that she is missing a leg. Immediately, his confidence blossoms and he thinks to himself: "I can do this."

He gets closer and without too much awkward hesitation, he blurts out:
"Would you care to dance with me??"

A shy smile stretches across the lady's face as she looks into the man's eyes and she says:
"Would I? Absol------"

Shocked, the man retracts and interupts: "Fuck you peg-leg, find someone else to dance with!"

Would you care to dance? ------ Would I??? Yes.
