Dorothy Parker (Дороти Паркер)

Chant for Dark Hours

    Some men, some men
    Cannot pass a
    Book shop.
(Lady, make your mind up, and wait your life away.)

    Some men, some men
    Cannot pass a
    Crap game.
(He said he'd come at moonrise, and here's another day!)

    Some men, some men
    Cannot pass a
    Bar-room.
(Wait about, and hang about, and that's the way it goes.)

    Some men, some men
    Cannot pass a
    Woman.
(Heaven never send me another one of those!)

    Some men, some men
    Cannot pass a
    Golf course.
(Read a book, and sew a seam, and slumber if you can.)

    Some men, some men
    Cannot pass a
    Haberdasher's.
(All your life you wait around for some damn man!)
