From the court
yard, I floate
/
d in
and watched it
go down.
Heard the cup
drop;
thought, "Well,
that's why the
y keep them ar
ound."
The blackguard
/
sat hard, dow
n,
with no head o
n him now,
and I felt so
bad,
cause I didn't
know how
to feel bad en
ough
to make him pr
(
oud.
By the time yo
u read this,
I will be so f
ar away.
Daddy longlegs
, how in the w
orld
am I to be exp
ected to stay?
In the night—
in the night,
you may hear m
e call
Pa, stay your
hand
and steel your
resolve.
Stay where you
are,
so long and ta
ll.

Here's Lola--t
a da!--to do
her famous Spi
der Dance for
you!
Lighten up you
r pockets!
Shake her skir
ts and scatter
, there,
a shrieking, s
ix-legged mill
ionaire
with a blight
in his sockets
.
Miss Montez,
the Countess o
f Lansfeld,
appealed to th
e King of Bava
ria,
saying, "Prett
y papa,
if you are my
friend—
mister daddy l
onglegs, they
are at it agai
n!—
Can I see ya?"
Poor Lola! A t
arantula mount
ing
Countess Lansf
eld's
handsome brass
iere,
while they all
cheer.
And the old ki
ng fell from g
race,
while Lola fle
d,
To save face a
nd her career
You caught a f
ly, floating b
y,
Wait for him t
o drown in the
dust;
drown in the d
ust of other f
lies,
whereby the ma
chine is run,
and the deed i
s done.
Heaven has no
word
for the way yo
u and your fri
ends
have treated p
oor Louis.
May god save y
our poor soul,
(
Lo-la!
(But there is
nothing I ador
e,
apart from tha
t whore's blac
k heart.)
Well, doesn't
that just beat
all!
Miss Gilbert,
called to Cast
lemaine
by the silver
dollar and the
gold glitter!
Well, I've see
n lots,
but never, in
a million year
s,
would think to
see you, here
.
Though the lon
g road
begins and end
s with you,
I cannot seem
to make amends
with you, Loui
s.
When we go out
,
they're bound
to see you wit
h me.
At night, I wa
lk in the park
,
with a whip,
between the li
nes
of the whisper
ing Jesuits,
who are poison
ing you agains
t me.
There's a big
black spider
hanging over m
y door.
Can't go anywh
ere, anymore.
Tell me, are y
ou with me?
I called to yo
u, several tim
es,
while the chan
ge took place
and then arriv
ed, all night,
and I died.
But all these
songs,
when you and I
are long gone
,
will carry on.
Mud in your ey
e.
You asked my h
and,
hired a band.
"In your heart
is all that y
ou need;
ask and you wi
ll receive," i
t is said.
I threw my bou
quet,
and I knocked
'em dead.
Bottle of whit
e, bottle of r
ed.
Helpless as a
child,
when you held
me in your arm
s,
and I knew tha
t no other
could ever lov
e me as you lo
ved.
Love me as you
loved,
But help me! I
'm leaving!
I remember eve
rything,
down to the so
und of you sha
ving--
the scrape of your razor,
the dully-abra
ding black hai
r
that remained
when you clutc
hed at me,
that night I c
ame upstairs,
half-dead,
and, in your k
indness,
you put me str
aightaway
in the cupboard,
with a bottle
of champagne,
and then, late
r, on a train.
It was dark ou
t, I was half-
dead.
I saw a star f
all into the s
ky,
like a chunk o
f thrown coal,
as if god hims
elf spat
like a cornere
d rat.
I really want
you to do this
for me,
will you have
one on me?
It was dark; I
was drunk and
half-dead,
and we slept,
knocking heads
,
sitting up in
the star-smoki
ng air,
knocking heads
like buoys.
Don't you worr
y for me!
Will you have
one on me!
Meanwhile, I w
ill raise my o
wn glass
to how you mad
e me fast
and expendable
,
and I will dri
nk to your exc
ellent health,
and your cruel
ty.
Will you have
one on me?
--helpless as
a child,
when you held
me in your arm
s,
and I knew tha
t no other
could ever lov
e me--
Oooh oooh ooh part : (, , , )

Daddy longlegs
