Once choked on a jelly bean, nearly met my maker
Thankfully it popped out while calling the undertaker
Postponing my departure
It wasn't in the charter
So I'll continue my notoriety as a PS troublemaker...

The trouble is...
I must be devoted.

The trouble is...
soon there'll be -
no devotee.

The trouble is...
soon I'll reveal -
there is no devoter.

to none, from none.

Yes I did, I wrote some more
While you were fast asleep
One was from a dream I had
The other chivalry 
I'm playing now, trying to get
A troublemaker down
And bouquets from inspiration?

If ever came the chance
I'd love on you with all I am
Et vivre avec toi en France...

to gain their trust

the weirder
to weird situations
that these people
may never be happy
or wedded....

Tell her! My sister, the troublemaker said on a dare.
I kept it to myself, for I am not as bad as Cher.
My sister who loves to stir up people until it’s not fair.
She got hers in the end when she was turned into a bear....
