When the allure of the party is over and the plug on the jukebox is pulled don’t huddle by yourself in the corner like a cigarette butt or little Jack Horner Polish the tables and shine the floor spray with glade and pledge the door a new reflection of you in the mirror next to the poster of James Dean you adore Wash the grease from your hands smooth them with Oil of Olay smile to a new tune of tomorrow tip your hat and have a nice day don’t be a soda jerk the rest of your life pick yourself up when you’re down scrape the Bazooka bubble gum from beneath the fountain of your frown You can complain because roses have thorns, or you can rejoice because thorns have roses. -Ziggy [This message has been edited by Victoria (01-23-2002 05:06 PM).] |

Victoria, I love this, first of all I saw the title and bazooka is my favorite, or was, my grandson likes the improved new kind. then I read it through and It sounded more and more like me, I love James Dean, always have, and of course the old housework, with pledge.
