Talking:
hey sat through the 
night In an empty apartment
3 older gentlemen came inside
And they brought wine and cards
and chocolate. And Joey smoked 
on a cigar and came back in
So you think he's something
special do you mean?

secure under blank
        Cm
features Protruding middle

she sat unashamed
