Lyrics for Three

"No," I said, my face close to the ground, "I'll stay as I am." "You really can annoy a person, I must say. Such a waste of time! Come on, put an end to it." "The way you shout! In the quiet of the night!" I said. "Just as you like," he added. But wheeling suddenly around, he looked at me – I hadn't quite finished yet – and said: "What's this? You're all crooked! What on earth are you up to?" "Quite right. You're very observant," said I, my head on the seam of his trousers, which was why I couldn't look up properly. I won't scream, I'll just stare at him as long as my eyes can stand it. "Well?" he said. "Well?" he said. "Well?" he said.
