Little Red Riding Hood
told the wolf where she stood.

Dorothy informed, "Emerald won't do",
as she twirled her ruby shoe.

Alice said, "off with your head -
Let's paint the town red!"

Premium Member The End of the Weekend

I don't like Sunday night
  It doesn't like me
It's the end of the weekend
  which doesn't fill me with glee

Tomorrow morning begins
  the workweek's dull grind
that some just can't wait for
  but which I really mind

My last hours of freedom
  couch potato-ing the tube ~
What the 'H' am I doing 
  I'm such a dumb rube

C'mon, let's go out
  We'll paint the town red
After all, the next weekend
  is just five days ahead

THE NIGHT IS YOUNG AND SO ARE WE

The night is young and so, my dear, are we.
(All right, that’s a cliché but that’s just me)
Let’s have a wild night and paint the town red.
(Oh dear, that’s another cliché I’ve said)
We’ll tour all the bars, drink whiskey galore,
Then to a night club and take to the floor.
But, of course, we won’t be doing those things.
We’ll just sit here while the nightingale sings.
I lied at the start, if the truth be told.
The night might be young, but we’re far too old.
