Post by bunniefuu »

[Music]

the Dame was as sultry as a Rio Sunset

but tougher than the last level of Doom

2 she moved gracefully like a jungle cat

smooth and sure as a cling on warship

and twice as

deadly hey buddy boy what's your hurry

huh Alex trailing that goth babe again

uh no no I was just um you know enjoying

the day yeah right nice day for a

stock I wasn't stalking right I've been

watching you follower for 20 minutes I

was just I hey what the hell are you

doing following me girls don't like

being spied on Alex it's creepy either

tell her you like her or give up and put

us all out of our misery oh you not

misery

impossible

damn and I'm just trying to get to know

her better by lurking in dark alleys let

me tell you all you need to know okay

superficial poser all right I hate girls

like that yeah like you know so much

about her look I know that anyone with

10 bucks can buy fish in its stockings

it doesn't automatically make you exotic

actually I really like the kind with the

black and white stripes she not even

worth stalking I'm not stalking it's

never going to go any place oh it will

you'll see oh I'll see someday I'll get

with her mhm if she doesn't file a

restraining order first look I got to go

I'm late for work I thought you were

just getting off so to

speak I got to pull the night shift cuz

I screwed up a big job the other day can

I Bor that umbrella thanks hey

hey she's as deep as a puddle

Alex hey Jen you looking for Alex cuz he

hasn't been in

today no it's not like everything in my

life involves Alex okay then what are

you looking for oh I don't know got any

more alternative comics about lonely

loser guys who draw alternative comics

about lonely loser guys you make my life

seem exciting sure back wall on the left

I am captivated do you think she looks

like a fetta please don't make me look

at her anymore ooh too slow caught

looking seems like you have quite a

little fan club those guys again I wish

theyd go back to whatever basement they

crawled out of you want me to toss their

pasty asses out nah they're harmless

they wouldn't know what to do with a

real girl anyway what I do for just a

few minutes with that yeah I'd give up

my old school 12-in Darth vade in a box

for just one night with her but Ron it's

it's Darth listen wedge I know you don't

want to hear this but there are some

things that are worth trading a 12in

doth for besides his articulation sucks

no I'm not listening it'd take a lot

more than old Darth to get Serena even

to look at the likes of us she is a

woman of mystery and power you'd

probably need a Yoda I bet she studies

the magical larts and dances in Central

Park and naked Pagan

rituals n she ain't the new age type

she's probably the leader of a g*ng of

tough bisexual motorcycle chicks you're

right probably warrior class yeah I

definitely you guys really need to get

laid oh um hey Jen laid never heard of

him is she part of the Star Wars

expanded universe because I'm sure I

have all the ones from the movie Man

screw-ups you've been there spacing out
