It began as a passing fancy,
or so it was described
A flash in the pan, Oh! Mercy!
Coming in, and then out like the tide

The years some said, would make a difference
when the boredom of time settles in
Surely, this love will have ended
twice as fast as it did begin

So wished those of envious displeasure,
with ears full of septic-like waste
Lips that could make crystal shatter
and tongues layered with a vulgar distaste

To dispatch these rogues of their language,
would to me be like swatting a fly
But as the tin cans followed behind us,
it was sweeter just to tell them good-bye!


Narrator: "The story you've just read is true. The color was changed to protect the innocence of the bride...when nothing else would".

"Dear Ann Landers

My Pinky-pink-pink finally showed up at ten to four and the tux had to be back at 2. All the cans were covered in road rash and I won't be able to reuse any of the string! And what's worse, now I have to sweep up all the rice-a-roni and forfeit my deposit on the 'do-it-yourself' matrimony kit!

Have mercy Ann and tell me what to do"!

Signed,

Poor, downtrodden, and crestfallen Phineas.
