If You Pull a Long Face - Part Viii

IF YOU PULL A LONG FACE : Part VIII IF you pull a long face On 2019 New Year's Day While at 2018 stick tongue out of face You bade Her badbyes, everybody'd say But if you pulled a long face On the Eve of New Year's Day Your Belle at Ball slapped your face Leave her high and dry on Wedding Day Now if you pulled along face Thinking how 2018 made you pay Wait to see how the 2019 Mephisto chase Will mock cock eye and good ol' Faust slay If you yet pulled a long face All Eve-night with no-one to lay Stay condemned by contumace While plea-bargain culprits bray So if you must pull a long face Year in and year out up Calvary way Don't buy taser to ease disgrace Yama follows Atman just as June May (2+1+9=12=3 follows 2+1+8=11=2) © T.
