Rewrite Below
Penny In The Fountain
© 2009 Greg Swartzentruber
The girls said I was ugly and had no redeeming traits
I don’t remember ever having any second dates
So I resolved to change myself so that I could be
A whole lot more attractive to my potential mates
I got into poetry and read some real fat books
Got lipo and a nose job to improve my woeful looks
I learned to be thoughtful and show how much I care
But to be extra sure, one more thing was what it took
I threw my penny in the fountain
And said a little prayer
Wished to find true love
With soft and silky hair
I yearned to share my soul
Before it withered up and died
So I threw my penny in the fountain
And made a wish inside
Right that very second, I saw her look at me
I waved Hi to her, she said I’m Penelope
We went for a coffee and talked the whole day long
I soaked in her beauty, this is how it’s s’posed to be
She moved in with me and we became a couple
I was surely glad I’d gone through all my trouble
I decided it was time for me to take the plunge
It worked before so I thought I might try for a double
I threw my penny in the fountain
And said a little prayer
Wished to find true love
With soft and silky hair
I yearned to share my soul
Before it withered up and died
So I threw my penny in the fountain
And made a wish inside
I bought the finest ring that I could hope to get
And as I drove home to her I passed the place we met
Penelope was sitting there with some other guy
If you said I felt betrayed you'd be making a safe bet
Penny hadn’t seen me so I found a place to park
I snuck up behind her I could tell they had a spark
I was gonna say something but no words would come out
My new self fell away and I did something rather dark
I threw my Penny in the fountain
And then got outta there
I’ll never find true love
And I no longer care
I yearned to share my soul
But Penny ripped out my insides
So I threw my Penny in the fountain
And I sure hope she died

"We are all millionaires, billionaires even, because right now we have today. And today is worth more than all the wealth we can imagine. So spend today wisely. Spend tomorrow wisely. Enjoy the wealth of today, and realize it is worth far more than all the money and possessions of tomorrow and beyond." -Brian Austin Whitney
