Something to Remember You By*

-Stop there! I get the gist.
-They find the arm in the freezer. Wrapped up like a roast.
Hadn’t really been able to extract DNA before this.
-(sings) Please give me something to remember you by.
-(also singing) When you are far away from me-yee.
-Some little something saying love will not die.
They continue alternating in song.
