Her sister at fourteen, very known She all kicks came lying there prone But the fundamental fact not spoken at her feeling like a chewed on bone and why, she wondered
And one who dug moving about Very liberal and of' spoke out How she was cool and No doubt with the up The turned out, you're condescending
And a couple together for five or six A marriage license, never been near But social pressure and loss of job Got them and divorced in half a year, they couldn't cut it
