I think next awards night instead of skanky old trophies, we should all win kittens

Ahem!! Less of the skanky thank you . . .

And Twig, yes they are cute 💕

And don't forget

See these eyes so green
I can stare for a thousand years
Colder than the moon
It's been so long

She doesn't give you time for questions
As she locks up your arm in hers
And you follow til your sense of which direction
Completely disappears

You're never ever through

TwigTheWonderKid · 12/09/2020 23:06

Well done @Honeyroar!

@FlouncerInDenial that's Stray Cat Strut too.

When I look back, boy, I must have been green
Bopping in the country, fishing in a stream
Looking for an answer, trying to find a sign
Until I saw your city lights, honey, I was blind

1980s

I can dream of the old days, life was beautiful then.
I remember, the time I knew what happiness was.
Let the memory live again

🤣🤣Can’t believe Flouncer did Stray cat strut too and I didn’t recognise it! Just shows how the line you pick changes everything!
