Margie I know you didn't mean me to run for cover But I'm taking no chances Oh! They Are Out To Get Me Oh dear! My goodness help me, whatever shall I do I need to hide myself away until this day is through I’ve heard some whispers of an awfully dastardly plot There are plans to drop me into water that’s very very hot Do I deserve this behavior? Why whatever have I done? Okay I'll admit I’m lively but there’s no need for a gun Can’t they just say Marsha! And use their stern tone I’ll behave there's no need to bellow down the phone Oh my giddy aunt! Tell me where it’s best to hide? Because if I don’t I know out of this town I’ll have to ride I heard them all talking saying that it’s me that they’ll get I think I’m safe for I haven’t seen them coming yet I know I’m a little bit of trouble but I’m asking you Pretend you haven’t seen me, well, it’s almost true If you shut your eyes you won’t see where I’m hid Just don’t listen to their tales because I really never did They’ll say I was the culprit but I’m telling you true That honestly I didn’t, simply because I wouldn’t do I don’t know why it’s always me that gets the blame Do you think I have a double like me, just the same? And if there is why don’t they go chasing after her Tell them there’s another me now that’ll cause a stir Anyway tell me quickly where’s the best hiding place Now please just don’t tell them you’ve seen my face Oh my goodness I can hear them approaching so fast Tell me how long does their hostility usually last? Please don’t tell them that you seen me here today I’m asking very nicely please don’t you give me away If I promise to be good and I’ll try really truly hard Tell them anything, just tell them that I’ve been barred Here is a kiss on account that I knew you’d help me And just in case another one in case I have to flee Mushy Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning [This message has been edited by Marsha (edited 02-14-2001).] |

Marsha, by the sound of it you may be in hot water. Seems this paranoid syndrome is going around. Check with Doreen and see where she hides. Maybe she'll let you hide with her. |

Mushy, don't get paranoid, you can hide behind me until the danger is past. Gotta love a girl who has as many delusions as me. Write on Kethry Those of us who refuse to risk and grow get swallowed up by life. Patty Hansen. |
