A HOMELESS MAN

Christmas bells are ringing
Christmas bells are ringing
Christmas bells are ringing
Somewhere else!
Not here

ANGEL

You okay honey?

COLLINS

I'm afraid so

ANGEL

They get any money?

COLLINS

No
Had none to get -
But they purloined my coat -
Well you missed a sleeve! - Thanks

ANGEL

Hell it's Christmas eve
I'm Angel

COLLINS

Angel...? Indeed
An Angel of the first degree
Friends call me Collins - Tom Collins
Nice tree...

ANGEL

Let's get a band-aid for your knee
I'll change, there's a "life support" meeting at nine thirty
Yes - this body provides a comfortable home
For the Aquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome

COLLINS

As does mine

ANGEL

We'll get along fine
Get you a coat, have a bite
Make a night - I'm flush

COLLINS

My friends are waiting -

ANGEL

You're cute when you blush
The more the merry - Ho Ho Ho
And I do not take no
