The Story Changes

Talking with Neighbor about all the gossip going on

The Story Changes

 

I have many friends

Rachel, Monica, Chandler, Ross

But I could use some Home Improvement

Heidi Ho Neighbor

 

My Friend Caroline in the City

Met This Single Guy

He told her I’m Mad About You

But she was in love with a Fresh Prince

 

And he went on to see Cybil, Bonnie and Ellen

I said he should have seen a shrink called Frasier

And Neighbor agreed

 

I told him about Grace Under Fire and the Nanny’s crisis

She ended up in the ER

 

Neighbor asked what about me

I told him of my trip to Beverly Hills, Melrose Place and Malibu Shores

My Party of Five after I earned my Wings

And my visit with Seinfeld

 

Neighbor inquired about the Nanny’s condition

Dr. Quinn took good care of her

I added my gossip about Dave’s World

His theory about the Third Rock From the Sun

Neighbor wondered where his theory came from

The X-Files, of course, I told him

 

Each Day, Week and Year

The Story changes

But I will always be talking about it with Neighbor here
