GRE詞匯巧用歌詞來記憶

　　She was presumptuous

　　She was bold to the point of rudeness

　　But there was always so much subtlety

　　I never notice how she treated me

　　She never liked it when I was superficial

　　When I only scratched the surface

　　Loving her could be unnerving

　　She often made me nervous

　　She had a wry sense of humor,a dry sense of humor,a wry sense of humor

　　She had a witty personality,clever personality,witty personality

　　Long may she reign

　　Rule over me with supreme power

　　She could be supercilious,so haughty,she looked down on me

　　But I barely noticed that about her

　　I want to be duped again

　　I want to be fooled again

　　And I may have been deluded and misled

　　But I felt so safe inside her spider web

　　Inside her spider web

　　Sometimes she’d provoke me

　　She’d arouse me into action

　　She’d pick on me because of my views

　　I’d say I suffered persecution

　　She never liked it when I was a sycophant

　　When I tried to be an ass-kisser

　　I guess it was unsound and unhealthy

　　But I,I could not resist her

　　She had a fluid way about her,a flowing way about her,a fluid way about her

　　She had a plethora of talent,a whole lot of talent,a plethora of talent

　　Long may she reign

　　Rule over me with supreme power

　　She could be so irascible,so querulous,so irritable

　　But I barely noticed that about her,oh that about her

　　I want to be duped again

　　I want to be fooled again

　　And I may have been deluded and misled

　　But I felt so safe inside her spider web

　　Inside her spider web
