Oh, we socked each other one all right and out the window (or what remained of it) they heard us at it all night. The grip of iron claws and scrambled applause for the shiny pistons in your new hand from the merry-wives' stand. We huffed and we puffed and we brought down the house. Good thing we had insurance.
