PLEBEIAN LOVE SONG I don't care what happens to me: Thrown to the lions or drowned in the sea, Gnawed by newts or stung by a bee, Or tied in a knot by a chimpanzee-- I don't care what I go through, Just as long as I'm with you. Struck by a hammer or pricked with pins, Beaten with bricks from my neck to my shins, Attacked by marmots or flogged by wrens, Or ground up fine and put in bins-- It doesn't matter as you can see, Just as long as you're with me. Knifed in the dark, mugged with a pipe, Pecked mercilessly by a rabid snipe, Dined on mushrooms of the wrong type, Bit and bludgeoned, I'll not gripe. Squashed by a truck or choked on a feather-- Just as long as we're together!
