quiche?

My all time favorite lyrics:

"And come to think of it
Your writing always mirrors our relationship
With dangers cropping
And sweet young strangers popping up like weeds
So if you wish official pardoning
You better do a little gardening
You know you needn't be so generous with your seeds
Your fertile lies don't fertilize
It needs work"
-- City of Angels
