The next day, when Lisa opened her locker, she found Budd sitting there smiling at her.
"Hi I'm buddy," he said, then, much to Lisa's dismay, began to sing, "If you've got the money, honey, I've got the tiiimmmmeeeee!"
"Ummmmm," Lisa blinked, not knowing how to respond.
"Looks like you have a little Romeo, Lisa," Annie said deviously.
"Bring on your cadilac, leave my wreck behind! If you've got the money, honey, I've got the time!"
A very abashed Lisa closed her locker door and hurried off to home room. But when she got there Buddy was sitting on the teacher's desk, "Hello boys and girls! I'm your substitute teacher! And I have a little song for Lisa!"
Lisa sank into her chair as Buddy began to sing, again.
"Why you have to go and make things so complicated? I see the way you're actin' like you're somebody else Gets me frustrated, Life's like this you, You fall and you crawl and you break, And you take what you get, and you turn it into, Honestly, you promised me I'm never gonna find you fake it, No no no," The bear crooned.
Finally home room was over, Lisa ran to the girls bathroom but Buddy was there.
"I Love singing in bathrooms! You know a ninja said that once. Suppose I called you up tonight and told you that I loved you, And suppose I said "I wanna come back home", And suppose I cried and said "I think I finally learned my lesson", And I'm tired a-spendin' all my time alone." Buddy sang at the top of his little lungs.
Lisa sank down to the floor. This day couldn't get an worse.
Aw, poor Lisa. Next Buddy terrorizes Manny and Francine!
I don't own 'If You've got the Money, Honey' or 'Complicated' or 'I told you So'. I wish i did. Boo hoo.
MTFBWY! JAS
