Subject: RE: Songs for the spelling of words
M is for the many times you made me
O is for the other times you tried
T is for those tawdry frat-house weekends
H is for hell that's in your eyes
E is for your everlasting passion
R is for the ruin you've made of me
Put them all together, they spell MOTHER
And that is what I think I'm going to be

THE ANSWER
F is for your funny correspondence
A is for this answer to your note
T is for your tearful remonstrations
H is for your hope I'll be the gost
E is for the ease with wehich I made you
R is for the rube you think I'll be
Put them all together, they spell FATHER
And that's a rap you'll never pin on me
