"Unfortunate Coincidence"
By the time you swear you're his
Shivering and sighing
And he vows his passion is
Infinite, undying--
Lady, make a note of this:
One of you is lying.

"Comment"
Oh, life is a glorious cycle of song,
A medley of extemporanea;
And love is a thing that can never go wrong;
And I am Marie of Roumania.

"De Profundis"
Oh, is it, then, Utopian
To hope that I may meet a man
Who'll not relate, in accents suave,
The tales of girls he used to have?

"Resume"
Razors pain you;
Rivers are damp;
Acids stain you;
And drugs cause cramp.
Guns aren't lawful;
Nooses give;
Gas smells awful;
You might as well live.

the urge to send that last one to emily is strong, my nonfriends.

in other news, lewis has a date. he has no girlfriend, but at this point in the year, i'm not interested in auditioning...the run wouldn't be long enough to make the rehearsals worth my while.

over and over and over and out.
