She swore like a sailor.....As she crawled to her trailer...called out the f-word....and flipped us the bird....no longer sings happily ever after

There was an upside for sweet little cherie... For the Doctor she did a marry... But don't think you're right... As she'll be singing for life... Like a fat cat that ate the canary!
