La, La, Lie {Triquatrain}

by xTheEcstasyOfSuicidex   Mar 20, 2007


I will laugh if you'll sing, I'll bite if you'll sting --
Let's play this game of ignorance to the dime.
I'll smile if you'll shout, I'll hush if you'll pout --
Let's start a game of malice to pass the time.
I'll masquerade to balls; you'll crumble and fall;
Shout out discomfort with childish wishes.
I will laugh if you'll sing, I'll bite if you'll sting --
This is a la, la, lie -- suck up your kisses.

    I'm surprised that it has such a low rating. I thought it was amusing. Maybe not outrageously funny but i liked it. 5/5.
