A Trio of Derivative Durantes and a Solitary Surrogate Cerf

     Beckett's Estragon sings to his friend Vladimir: 
"Didja ever get the feelin' you must wait for Godot
but still have the feelin' he ain't comin' today...?"

     Dancer Clayton Bates sings: 
"Didja ever lose the feelin' in yer left pinkie toe
but still have the feelin' that the rest were okay...?"

     Anonymous consumer of anabolic steroids sings: 
"Didja ever get the feelin' that yer get-up-'n'-go
instills in you a feelin' that'll lead you astray...?"


Language...? Three kinds spring to mind.
Some's written; some's spoken; some's sign'd.
The first employs notes. 
The second...? Folks' throats.
The third's thing...? Bring words to the blind.
