THE "IN" THING

"What's the worst that could happen?"
As they stayed inside one night
No sucking---no fucking
No one night stand
...Fear---the "in" thing

2 descriptions for one thing
I think they call it cinnamon
Or some other seasoning
As he sits in the closet
As she undresses her garments
The unoriginality of them both
...Oh God fears---the "in" thing

The world spins a little faster
Streets are filled with laughter
A merry-go-round telephone ring
...We fear---the "in" thing

Taste the victory of whiskey's wine
And witness the true valentine
When you wear what you want to
And do what you want to do
No pop songs for us to sing
...We'll all dance and fear---the "in" thing

For the in thing is tired and torn
The in thing is wired and worn
And we speak without thinking
We glance without winking
...And fear---the "in" thing
...Fear---the "in" thing
