Capitola Seven

Andrea and Francine were busy trying to pacify Carl.

"How could you?" Carl wailed. "How could you replace me!"

"We didn't have a choice!" Andrea wailed back. "I'd rather have you back than what's-her-name."

"It's Christopher," Francine told him. She was busy reading a letter sealed with a wax stamp.

"Odd name for a girl," Andrea remarked.

"Christopher's a man, Andrea."

"That so? Are you sure?"

"Yes. Have you gotten a note like this?" Francine brandished the letter.

"No, and I checked my mail every day last week."

"Really?" Francine asked. "because I found this in my coat pocket." She handed a letter similar to hers to Andrea.

"Oh, yeeeeeeaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh," Andrea said. "I borrowed your coat to meet some guys I met at a bar."

Francine swelled up. "You took my coat to meet guys? How dare you! Get your own coat!"

"I can't!" Andrea whined. "It caught on fire."

"Gah, let's just get back to the notes. Mine tells me to 'Get the hell out of my Ballet.'"

"Mine says…" Andrea said, skimming her note for a command, "Ah, here we are. 'Get your fat ass out of my friggin' box. I told you to leave it empty, dammit.'"

"Can we get back to me?" Carl whined. "I thought you wanted me back, but you care more about notes than me." He began to sob loudly.

Your fans need you

The world needs you

Would you not rather have your ridiculous Christopher?

Signor, never. We want you

Major Domo, first man on the stage

Please sing again

We're even willing to beg

Can you not bow to their cheering applause

Think of how they cheer for you

Major Domo

You must sing again

The music pines

And the words die without you

How can you deny us your dancing

Dance, Major Domo again

Major Domo,

I'll dance, I'll dance again

I'll dance to cheers

When I appears

On that stage

"You can't use 'appears' that way," Francine said.

"Shut up," Carl snapped. "Let me finish."

Think of their hands

Which they'll beat into pulp

Trying to clap hardest for me

Major Domo,

My dance will never pass

I'll dance again

And the applause won't end

Think how I'll shine

Next to slobs like you

I dance Major Domo again

Who'd belive a patron

Desperate to have an dancer

Rowina and that snot

We know they were together

It'd be a great story in a play

But plays are boring

Come see the Ballet

At 52 Via dell Artista's

Major Domo

We are are the ground

The world is waiting

And hows it's hating Christopher

Brighten the stage with that decage old bond

Dance Major Domo again!
