I was totally listening to Leonard Cohen's Closing Time while i was writing that. :)

(And I think I see several of our characters in this video...)



And my very sweet companion
she's the angel of compassion
she's rubbing half the world against her thighs
and every drinker, every dancer
lifts a happy face to thank her
the fiddler fiddles so sublime

Oh, the women tear their blouses off
and the men they dance on the polka dots
it's partner found and partner lost
and there's hell to pay when the music stops
it's closing time
