SPIDERS NEVER FORGET AN ADDRESS

Or, even try to take the little blighters, further down the road

I hate it whenever a machine answers a phone.
They call it another advance step in automation.

Torrero sans l’aide de Picador
Such artful courage sans pareil :
Gored in the loins

No need to shout who Bad Guys stand for
Mean lances of the Picador slay

Seek not Bad Guys’ ultimate death
Shakespeare says they ever die blighters :
Let cowards lie
