While most other birds sing a duet,

Or with a chorus hidden up in a tree,

A wispy voiced limp haired Lolita soundtracks this cliche 
As overpriced
Over spiced
Panini, chai’s and muffin tops
Plonk and plop

When I found the time to be
I found that time had passed me by

When my dreams had set me free
Life set its bounds upon the sky
