The Tragic Events, part III - Evelyn Evelyn

Lyrics

words to study

Evelyn?

Evelyn?

I just had the most terrible dream.

I was walking on a street in a huge city,

but all of the shops and all of the cars were empty.

It was so quiet, and I knew that something was very wrong.

And then I realised... you weren't there.

I called for you, but no one answered.

I looked for you everywhere, Evelyn.

Hush, it was only a dream.

Don't be scared.

Remember, everything is going to be better soon, Evelyn.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The year is 2004.

The Da Vinci code is the New York Times's number one bestseller,

and the bombing at the Australian embassy in Jakarta leaves eleven dead.

And on an open stretch of road,

two sisters are waiting for a ride.

On the eve of their 19th birthday,

the twins have covertly left their circus trailer,

packing their few worldly possessions;

a change of clothes,

their painted ukulele,

and a battered photograph of Bimba and Kimba.

they walk nine miles under cover of night.

After what seems like an endless wait,

an 18-wheeled truck pulls over

and the driver, a retired professional wrestler named Tony,

offers the girls a ride

("Hey, little ladies. Why don't you slide on up in here, next to Tony.")

Unskilled at smalltalk,

the twins sit wide-eyed and silent in the front seat.
