Well done long thin arm man.

You have saved me from being robbed and given the bad person a bent nose.

Marry me – I will sing your song.

“The long thin arm man
is not a petty critical man,
he’s a tough solid restless man
to knock the wicked on the head.
On the skull or face or head.
To knock the wicked on the head.”

It’s a leap year.
