For a trivial reason

But only to protect myself
And I didn't think about anyone else”

“Hamlet: Lady, shall I lie in your lap?
Ophelia: No, my lord.

Ophelia: What is, my lord?
Hamlet: Nothing.”

“Now I think I'm going down to the well tonight
And I'm going to drink till I get my fill.
And I hope when I get old I don't sit around thinking about it,
But I probably will.
Yeah, just sitting back trying to recapture
A little of the glory of,
Well time slips away and leaves you with nothing mister but boring stories of glory days.”

For this is the most civil sort of lie
That can be given to a man's face. I now
Say what I think.”
