| A Dinner Table at Night, 1884, John Singer Sargent |
Traveling from town to town
They joked about the drummer
When he wasn't around.
He sold the ladies housewares
And sold the men some tools
He wooed this lady
By gifting her with jewels.
She tries so hard
You can see it in her face
The boredom overcomes
Even in this elegant place.
The red triangle of light
Sparkles on her jewels
The Drummer keeps on talking
Bragging about his tools.
As the evening drags
She gets a little drunk
When asked for another date
She said, "I'd rather eat a skunk!"
