Oh no! Disaster!
Someone I don't really know (i.e. been in the same room, never ever spoken) is going to get hurt soon. Not "ow, my bone's sticking through my skin" hurt, but the other kind. The heart kind. And it's really getting to me. I don't know the entire situation, sure, but all signs point to ouch. I want to help. But I'm in no position to provide any.Sometimes it's much, much, much, much better not knowing people.
"Oh look outside the window, there's a woman being grabbed
They've dragged her to the bushes and now she's being stabbed
Maybe we should call the cops and try to stop the pain
But Monopoly is so much fun, I'd hate to blow the game
And I'm sure it wouldn't interest anybody
Outside of a small circle of friends."
