J.C. works on Christmas eve Down at the Star Light diner: Fifth and main, he pours Black coffee For the red eyed suit And other revelers, Late for their families Christmas-eve dinners; Talks them sober, Sends them home, forgiven. * "It's your birthday, man, You shouldn't have to work tonight", Shivers out, the skinny Topless dancer, Fully dressed, but newly fresh From spinning, nearly naked, 'round her pole for all the perv's. * It's no bother, It's my pleasure", his reply, "You must remember I've been sent with obligations, And the reason I have come here Is to serve" * end |

"You must remember I've been sent with obligations, And the reason I have come here Is to serve" ~*~ And if we only followed by example... ah well, sigh... let's keep hoping, hey, Ice? |
