Call me a brain with a missing
Call me what you
But I'm still
In love harold mingert

And a car is a car
But if harold didn't have a car too his
I I'd love him just the same
Call me you will
But nonetheless I'm

But isn't everything
And if harold didn't a car too his name

But sometimes I ask myself why
Do I than love harold
Harold isn't handsome or or smart
And I don't find romance and a in his heart
The only answers I can about

Call me what you
But non the I'm still
In with harold mingert
Also fleisher!
