Stones contest

Listen to poem:

Hey, ANGIE I just want to say And I don't want to PAINT IT BLACK I know you felt UNDER MY THUMB But, seriously consider the facts YOU CAN'T ALWAYS GET WHAT YOU WANT Cause life is like TUMBLIN DICE You're just like those HONKY TONK WOMEN Sometimes you're naughty then nice Some say we should stay together Although we're apposing forces And I miss you like RUBY TUESDAY It's like we are two WILD HORSES

"You can't always get what you want, Angie (uh, or is it Ruby?) no you can't always get what you want (gonna keep you under my thumb so plbbttthhh) said you can't always get what you want (and don't even ask for a horse. Shoot woman, we ain't got a house much less a barn) but if you try sometime you just might get what you need (um, got a pair of black and white dice if that'll sub for ring Ruby, I mean Ange"
