Thinking back 

to the season 

before 

Looking back through the cracks in the door 

Two people were married 

The act was outrageous 

The bride was contagious 
     
She burned lik

N.C.
And whoa whoa whoa 
She said:
Why?
Why don't we drive through the night 
              
We'll wake up 

            
down in Mexico

 
   N.C.
Oh I 

I don't know nothin' about nothin' about 
      
No Mexico 
             N.C.
And tell me why 
Why won't you love me 
For who I am 
         
Where I am 
He said: 

'Cause that's 

not the way th

This is how I 

love you, baby

One and one-half wandering Jews 
Return to their natural coasts 
To resume old acquaintances 
Step out occasionally 
              
And speculate 

              
who had been d

Easy time will

 determine if 

these consolat

Will be their reward

Waiting to be

You take two b

              
odies and you 

              
twirl them int

Their hearts a
