That her time with Stupid Stalker was swell
But she claimed nothing concerned Cupid?

Would be riding for a fall
Rather than ride the punch I stood aside
My time has come the shots to call!

My feelings she still will not consider;
Pastoral replacement is no longer
But I hear Physiology tutor is now Onga...
