Bad Medicine!
The look in her eyes
took him by surprise
and the sudden embrace
made him red in the face
No singing sound
he gaped around
not a word
had CG heard?
Why was everything
so much trouble
he headed for the newspaper
on the double
At the door he heard
the noisy voices
to go or stay
both dangerous choices
Breathing deep
he grabbed the door
inside was CG
on the floor
Glassy eyed
with silly grin
torn bits of paper
and lemon gin
And with shoulders shrugged
there sat Rue
as if to say
'Nothing I could do.'
'She saw you, 3Gun
with that Indian girl.'
He felt his stomach
start to curl
'That was her,
it wasn't me!
Surely that was
plain to see!
Now she needs help
that's for sure.
We need an AJ cure
