And here are a few
ladies. My Friend.

"On the kitchen table
rested the telephone.

00:00:08.070 --> 00:00:10.590 align:middle line:90%
I called my girlfriend, Mabel.

00:00:10.590 --> 00:00:12.270 align:middle line:90%
Oh, I was not alone.

00:00:12.270 --> 00:00:17.040 align:middle line:84%
I matched her for the vacuous
phrase and for the belly groan.

00:00:17.040 --> 00:00:20.760 align:middle line:84%
How have the days beginning,
a girl can feel despair,

00:00:20.760 --> 00:00:25.410 align:middle line:84%
the jars of night cream won't
erase, nor rinsing of her hair.

00:00:25.410 --> 00:00:27.540 align:middle line:84%

00:00:27.540 --> 00:00:30.060 align:middle line:90%
and the mirrors' dirty stare.

00:00:30.060 --> 00:00:33.490 align:middle line:84%
And so it is with Mabel,
and so it is with me.

00:00:33.490 --> 00:00:37.390 align:middle line:84%
We sucker each the other
for strength of sympathy.

00:00:37.390 --> 00:00:41.500 align:middle line:84%
A corset for existence
stays the will to be."
