Dear singing coffee shop patron,
Omigod, do you know all the words to Elton John's Tiny Dancer, too? I thought I was the only person in the world who did! But now that you've undertaken to sing it out loud and whistle the music-only parts, I know how much we have in common, and I am so impressed by you. I bet this bond of cultural knowledge is unique and important, since no one else in the coffee shop knows this very obscure song, and they really appreciate your singing the words for them. Singing coffee shop patron, you and me are meant to be.
No love,
Miss Self-Important

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to write a parody of "Tiny Dancer" about Hannah Arendt. If you sing this in coffee shops in the future, and someone's eyes light up, you will indeed know that is your Special Someone. If you can translate this parody into German and Greek, you will be accepted into the grad school of your choice with a full scholarship, and health insurance for one (1) feline.
I didn't know anyone found Elton John as annoying as I do. We should have lunch.
Oh, I thought it was "hold me closer, Tony Danza." (Old, I know, but still funny.)
