because i love poe and this song is made of awesome
who never read a book,
charmed the literati and
a smile was all it took.
I was laughing with Picasso
when she first entered the room,
but Gershwin, Tristan, Tzara,
and Man Ray saw her too.
There was never any doubt
all would try to take her home,
but she refused their every move;
preferred to be alone.
And a rose... A rose is a rose.
Zelda had a breakdown,
Fitzgerald hit the bar.
His hand was broken, words were spoken,
didn't get too far.
Hemmingway was smoother
more debonair and fun,
but he would say her repartee
was meaner than a gun.
And a rose...
A rose is a rose is a rose is a rose is a rose...
Said my good friend Gertrude Stein.
She knows that I go to the ol' Deux Magots,
and I drink Pernod through the night.
Jezebel...From Israel
who never read a book,
she charmed the literati
and a smile was all it took.
Before her Joyce will babble
and Pound has gone insane,
Eliot is paralyzed
by thoughts of April rain.
When she refused Lenin,
he vowed to start a war.
Stravinsky beat The Rite of Spring,
right there on the floor.
And a rose... a rose is a rose.
A rose is a rose is a rose is a rose is a rose...
Said my good friend Gertrude Stein.
She knows that I go to the ol' Deux Magots,
and I drink Pernod through the night.
And then one night she's missing,
a riot soon began.
No one could stand the thought of Jezzie with another man.
I raced down winding streets,
I broke into her house.
You never guess who Jezebel
was kissing on the couch.
A rose...A rose is a rose...
Hi Jezzie.
Hi there, Gertrude.
Am I interrupting something?
"On non non non on ne fait que discuter de la couleur
Du cafe et des sofas!"
A rose is a rose is a rose is a rose is a rose...
She is just a
She is just a rose!
"A Rose is a Rose"

In other news... In what sounds like spectacular idiocy by Queenslander scientists, they are releasing mosquitoes to reduce the number of mosquitoes somehow.
Also these new mosquitoes have bacteria in them to protect against the Dengue virus, which makes sense... it's just the first part which makes none.
Love you all~
