Never forget the first time they met He'd fallen asleep in the middle of class Supposed to be taking an important test But instead of a pencil had his head on the desk At an Ivy League school mind you one of the best He was training to become an architect Professor look up and softly he said, "Are you awake, Everett?" Everett woke up said, "Yes, yes, yes" and went about cleaning the drool off his desk He'd stayed up all night to study this shit Now could not remember which building was which Supposed to be matching a name to a picture But for the life of him he could not remember There were buildings with brick and buildings on stilts And buildings that wish they had never been built Houses in this color and others in that And ones without windows and others all glass There's a tower that soars and a low-lying morgue And a big box store and one place without a door But it all looked the same to Everett Until he saw one he'll never forget It was absolutely fantastic, brilliant, magnificent He was in love He rushed up front to turn in his test Said, "Go on, go ahead, just give me an F To be honest professor I'm awful sick I best go home and get me some rest "Before I go I'm so curious Would you tell me the name of this last one?" he asked Teacher said, "That one there is the Ham House It's right here in Connecticut You haven't seen it before I have to admit I just threw it on there for a little extra credit" Mr. and Mrs. Ham were at the driving range A beautiful day for practicing Mr. Ham had taught his wife how to swing She could hammer a ball way out on the green Her swing was impeccable perfectly clean It was one of the best that he had ever seen She shredded the target right off the tee She could sail a golf ball 900 feet Meanwhile Everett had showed up at their house He had to come and check it out Was the most remarkable place he'd seen before Went right up and knocked the cleaning lady answered the door She said, "I'm sorry sir this is a private space" Says, "Please, ma'am I need one little taste Glimpse of the inside and I'll be on my way" Before she could say no he'd stepped into the entryway "Now sir I have to ask you to leave!" But Everett already kicked his shoes off his feet He hung up his coat said, "I'll just be a minute Now make yourself useful why not show me the kitchen?" Now the maid got scared she turn and run Went for the phone to dial 911 But Everett he wanted the house to himself So this is when the story really goes south He grabbed ahold of the innocent maid That poor old lady earning minimum wage And wrapped her up with a roll of duct tape Said, "I'm terribly sorry I can't let you escape" At last Everett had the house all alone Almost as if it were his actual home The most beautiful place he'd ever done gone He said, "This is where I belong" First thing he did was open the fridge Took a big swig out of the milk carton When all of the sudden it dawned on him Exactly what it was that he would do next In order to soak in the total experience He would need a bubble bath rinse So up to the master bath full steam ahead To turn on the faucets and get totally naked Everett bathed he thought, "This is the life" The Ham House is most certainly paradise Mr. and Mrs. Ham they were headed back home They'd packed up their clubs in their convertible Drove it real fast down a suburban road Laughing and listening to pop radio They couldn't have known what was in store 'Till they saw the car of the maid and an open front door Mr. parked the Mercedes said, "Something is up Honey I'll go in first why don't you grab the clubs?" He walked in his kitchen saw a boy at the stove Who was frying an egg without any clothes And dripping with water right down to his toes When all of the sudden up popped two slices of toast Mr. Ham he let out a gasp That old man had cardiac arrest The boy just smiled said, "Thank goodness you're back Where in tarnation are your bath towels at?" Right at that moment Mrs. Ham came in with a scream And gave her golf club a violent swing Planted the 9 iron on Everett's face and blew out Everett's Ivy League brain
