 REDDIT ME:

FRIENDS

Paula thinks she's in a play and takes the leading role,

Rob regrets the night before and crawls into a hole,

Jemima joins a gang and gets some tips on acting tough,

and David's doing drugs so really couldn't give a stuff.

 

Selling stocks in secret nets Armando quite a pile,

Scotty joins the Scouts to prove he's not a pedophile,

afloat on Lake Enlightenment, Rebecca finds her mind,

relinquishes her roots and over-d's on orange rind.

 

Hidden in the corner little Toni's turning tricks,

Ivan turns his eyes away, continues pressing bricks,

then Sarah serves some sandwiches, forgets the tea and cream,

but no-one's hungry once again, it makes her want to scream.

 

Michael meets a mortar and it blows him in the air,

Rachel reads Rapunzel while a Prince attacks her hair,

communications cease as Bobby breaks with Betty-Sue,

apparently he cheated, sending Ben a billet-doux.

 

Gathered round the campfire as Gillespie plays guitar

Rhonda sings reminders of how popular they are,

poor Carrie gets emotional as Cindy starts to cry,

and Kylie strangles Susan as the credits roll on by.
