We need to talk
"Freddie!"
Florence said storming into the hotel room.
"What is it Florence?"
He asked with slight annoyance in his voice.
"Freddie you need to stop speaking freely to the press you are causing trouble for you and making our country look like shit!"
"It's my voice I have the right to use it and what is it to you?"
"You wanna lose your only friend, well keep it up you're doing fine!
This humiliation, why treat me like a fool?
I've taken shit for seven years and I won' t take it anymore!"
"I'm only teasing soviets
with gentle bon ami
And you've got better reason
to be anti them than me."
"There's a time and there's a place!"
"Well how 'bout here and now?
Are you for me or are you for them?"
"There's a time and there's a place!"
"So you got
What you want.
What a nasty ambition.
Set me up,
Pull me down,
Then exploit my condition.
I should have guessed, woman,
That if pressed, woman,
You're on nobody's side
But your own.
And you're behaving
Like a mere woman,
It's so clear, woman,
It's your sex!
Once they start
Getting old,
And getting worried,
They let fly,
Take it out
On the one
Who supports them--
That's you
I'm talking about."
"Who'd ever guess it?
Such a squalid little ending--
Watching you descending
Just as far as you can go.
I'm learning
Things I didn't want to know."
"Who'd ever think it?
This would be the situation."
"One more observation--"
"How'd we ever get this far
Before you showed me
What you really are?"
"You'll be lost without me
To abuse like you're used to."
"Go away!
Just get out!
Be someone else's
Parasite!"
"Fine Freddie if that's what you want!"
Florence said leaving the hotel room.
Freddie sat down on the bed with his head in his hands.
"I'm not the kind
To be vindictive--
Holding some childish grudge.
How could I be?
I'm in the spotlight--
Half of the world my judge.
All I demand
Is those I work for,
Those I give all my skills
All my time, and pain,
Those that I entertain.
Give me the same
Compassion in return
But the fools never learn."
