I have a friend named Claudette
But we all call her Clo Clo
She is an actress
And is playing the lead in Phaedra
I am also an actor
And will playing Hippolytus
In the same production
We have a couple of intimate scenes together
And rehearse our roles in a mythological bath
We must not amplify our friendship
And do ordinary things together
I will buy the milk if you buy the coffee
The production has no importance
On our everyday lives
That is how we will shape our characters
Clo Clo and Dan walk through a city park
It is high summer and they could be lovers
But sometimes the brightest of colours
Can be found to be spilling white lies
