The Party of the first Part
and the party of the next
Are partly participled
In a parsley-covered text--
Were you partial to a Party
That has parceled out its parts
With the Party that was second
In your polly-tickle heart?
*Then* parlay all your losings
On a horse that's running dark--
With lights-out you may triple
In a homer in the park.
I'm not even going to attempt to deconstruct this right now, a) because I don't think it makes any thorough, deliberate sense and b) because I think the occasions will present themselves as I keep writing. But it matters--hell, look at the second verse. (It is a verse; this is a song; there's actually music.)
