Oh my, oh my,my Share
You really did not care? [:D]
Groupies of All already gave you a look askance
Will you, won't you really won't you join the dance?
Will you, won't you, will you, won't you, won't you join the dance?
"The Turquoiseb Quadrille"
"Will you walk a little faster?" said a whiting to LongShare,
"There's a Turquoise close behind us, he's treading without any
care.
See how eagerly the lobsters and the turtles all advance!
They are waiting on the shingle -- will you come and join the dance?
Will you, won't you, will you, won't you, will you join the dance?
Will you, won't you, will you, won't you, won't you join the dance?
"You can really have no notion how delightful it will be
When they take us up and throw us, with the lobsters, out to sea!"
But LongShare replied "Too far, too far!" and gave a look askance --
Said she thanked the whiting kindly, but she would not join the
dance.
Would not, could not, would not, could not, would not join the
dance.
Would not, could not, would not, could not, could not join the
dance.
"What matters it how far we go?" her scaly friend replied.
"There is another shore, you know, upon the other side.
The further off from FFL the nearer is "No Chance"--
Then turn not pale, beloved LongShare, but come and join the dance.
Will you, won't you, will you, won't you, will you join the dance?
Will you, won't you, will you, won't you, won't you join the dance?
