Dorothy Parker - The DramatistsDorothy Parker - The Dramatists
Work rating: Low


A string of shiny days we had,  A spotless sky, a yellow sun; And neither you nor I was sad  When that was through and done. But when, one day, a boy comes by  And pleads me with your happiest vow, "There was a lad I knew—" I`ll sigh,  "I do not know him now." And when another girl shall pass  And speak a little name I said, Then you will say, "There was a lass-  I wonder is she dead." And each of us will sigh, and start  A-talking of a faded year, And lay a hand above a heart,  And dry a pretty tear.
