Gershon, Pen Something Romantic, C'mon
You’re supposed to be a poet, Gershon
Pen something romantic for once, C’mon
Where lovers pledge their troth
while villains stir the broth
Where gallant knights in shining armor
rescue fair maidens, born to farmers
Where kings and queens prance ‘cross the stage
relics of a long-lost gilded age
Where tragedy and comedy co-mingle
and the audience’s collective spine tingles…
Alas, my dear friends, I need disappoint you
Your anointment I must eschew
Far greater things await me
Escaping your cage ~ I now am free
