Song: She Called out...From Within...

She Called out...From Within...

She called "OUTS" from within her totalitarian
Dictatorship,
And everyone said, "YOU say it, baby",
"Wer'e gonna see it all!"
Shave her head and sackcloth,
Then she took the sackcloth off!
She said, "Jude, I just can't face another day!"
And she said, "Oh, don't even think of it, Rei!"
{But....should she be scared....for...herself?}
My little "shana punim"*{in Yiddish, "pretty face"}
You're my sweet Chantilly Lace!
You've got such a pretty face!
Put them on and take them off (oooh,oooh!)
Somewhere in there she struck a bargain,
Talked him down in price!
She said, "My children do not have to hear the
tale of YOUR angry voice!-
My children do not have to see the tale of YOUR
angry voice!"
They said, "Rei, you can't touch her..."
{But she sure can touch me!}
I didn't have a choice....
Because once this thing actually DOES GET REAL.
Nothin' will ever be the same!
Like the planets...Mars, Uranus, Jupiter, Saturn...
Pluto......la de da de da..."Hey, Jude!"
You're talkin' famous Amos here!
Love, your sister,
"Rei"...and thankyou for caring in my deeply
depressed state of despair and
humiliation.
