Every time we turn around, Albert is chasing Betty with a plunger.

Every time we turn around,
Albert is chasing Betty with a plunger.
But, it really doesn’t matter.
They have roller skates.
Every time we turn around,
Betty is chasing Albert with a paint roller.
But, it really doesn’t matter.
They have roller skates.
They have roller skates they can use.
They have roller skates they can sell
in an online auction. How beneficial?
They have more roller skates than you or I.
You or I?
You or I?
It really doesn’t matter what they do with
their roller skates, because we will still watch
them through the windows,
jealous of their shiny roller skates.
Tricia just bought a scooter.
