They made their paints by mixing acid wash and lemonade.
In my encephalon I re-arrange the letters on the page to spell your name.
I found an Ezra Pound and made a bet that if i constitute a cigarette i'd driblet it all and marry y'all.
Just so a song comes on: "you can't ever get what you want" – the Rolling Stones, oh woe is we, the irony!
The stones became the moss and once all inhibitions lost, the hipsters made a mission to the farm.
We drove by tractor there, the xanthous harbinger replaced our pilus, nosotros laced the dairy river with the cream of sweetness vermouth.
In my brain I re-arrange the messages on the page to spell your proper name.
You said "we only live once" so we touched a footling natural language, and instantly i wanted to…I lost my train of idea and jumped aboard the Epping as the doors were slowly endmost on the globe.

In my brain I re-adjust the messages on the page to spell your name.
We caught the river gunkhole downstream and ended up abreast a team of angry footballers.
I fed the ducks some krill then we were sucked against our will into the welcome doors of the casino.
We drank green margaritas, danced with sweet senoritas, and we all went dwelling house as winners of a kind.
You said "i guarantee we'll have more fun, drink till the moon becomes the sun, and in the taxi home i'll sing you a Triffids song!"
In my encephalon I re-arrange the letters on the page to spell your name.

It's a "Californian bungalow in a cul-de-sac".
It'south got a lovely garden, a garage for two cars to park in ("or a lot of room for storage if y'all've only got one").
And it's going pretty cheap you lot say? "Well it's a deceased estate….aren't the pressed metal ceilings bully?"
Then I see the handrails in the shower, a collection of those canisters for coffee, tea and flour, and a photo of a boyfriend in a van in Vietnam.
