"I let him go,
I didn't know
He'd stolen my beans!
I was watching him crawl,
Back over the wall-!
Then bang! Crash!
And the lightning flash!
And- well, that's another story,
Never mind-
Anyway..."
Funny funny funny...
I'll put in my Wicked tribute:
"And for once I'm glad I'm heartless,
I'll be heartless killing her."

at the beginning of Wicked there is a line that goes something like:
"Are people born wicked, or is wickedness thrust upon them?"
not completely accurate, but close...

I dont know the exact quote but from Ragtime younger brother says something like: "For a many whose traveled so much you know so little. I despise you"
I also love from DRS: Freddy: Dont snore at the opera. Lawrence: It was wagner. Freddy: It was six hours! I dont like to have sex and eat bacon for six hours.
