If you’ve heard my mother
talk to my father
as he sits in his urn
amongst her good china,
you know what e.e. cummings meant by “death i think is no parenthesis”
I could show the world how to smile
I could be glad all of the while
I could change the grey skies to blue
If I had youI could leave the old days behind
Leave all my pals, I´d never mind
I could start my life all anew
If I had youI could climb a snow capped mountain
Sail the mighty ocean wide
I could cross the burning desert
If I had you by my sideI could be a king, dear, uncrowned
Humble or poor, rich or renowned
There is nothing I couldn’t do
If I had you- Ted Shapiro, Jimmy Campbell, Reg Connelly
It comes out today.
The reviews are dreadful, but I´m still going to watch it.
At the very worse, I´ll cry myself to sleep after stomping around the movie theater throwing popcorn at the screen, screaming “Boo! Boo!” as if I were the ugly old woman in “The Princess Bride.”
P.S. I love Mr. Burton.
I love most of Lewis Carroll´s creatures.
Now that being said, Tim Burton´s “Alice in Wonderland” was mediocre at best.
Go see it if you have nothing better to do.
Can I say at least one nice thing about it?
Sure, I´ll say two.
The colors were nice and bright and the giant “chess board” where the armies meet is lovely.
Oh, and the teapots are really pretty.
Look at that! I even had 3 nice things to say.
