And so, into the abyss
The lot, where a small stage is partially set up.
Line in. I went to Harvard for this?
-Close on Mark's nose dive. -Line out.
Will he get out of here alive?
-Mark? -Hi.
I told her not to call you
That's Maureen, but can I help Since I'm here?
I've hired an engineer.
Great.
So nice to have met you.
Wait.
She's three hours late.
The samples won't delay But the cable--
There's another way Say something, anything
Test, one, two, three
Anything but that
-This is weird -It's weird
-Very weird -***' weird
I'm so mad that I don't know what to do
Fighting with microphones Freezing down to my bones
And to top it all off I'm with you
Feel like going insane? Got a fire in your brain?
And you're thinking Of drinking gasoline?
-As a matter of fact -Honey, I know this act
It's called the Tango: Maureen
The Tango: Maureen
It's a dark, dizzy merry-go-round
-As she keeps you dangling -You're wrong
-Your heart she is mangling -It's different with me
And you toss and you turn
'Cause her cold eyes can burn
Yet you yearn, and you churn And rebound
I think I know what you mean
-The Tango: Maureen -The Tango: Maureen
Has she ever pouted her lips And called you "pookie"?
Never.
Have you ever Doubted a kiss or two?
This is spooky
Did you swoon When she walked through the door?
Every time, so be cautious
Did she moon over other boys?
-More than moon -I'm getting nauseous
Where'd you learn how to tango?
With the French ambassador's daughter in her room at Miss Porter's.
And you?
With Nanette Himmelfarb, the rabbi's daughter...
...at the Scarsdale Jewish Community Center.
It's hard to do this backwards.
You should try it in heels.
-She cheated -She cheated
-Maureen cheated -***' cheated
I'm defeated I should give up right now
Gotta look on the bright side With all of your might
I'd fall for her still, anyhow
When you're dancing her dance You don't stand a chance
Her grip of romance makes you fall
-So you think, "Might as well" -"Dance a tango to hell"
"At least I'll have tangoed at all"
The Tango: Maureen
Gotta dance till your diva is through
You pretend to believe her
'Cause in the end You can't leave her
But the end, it will come Still you have to play dumb
Till you're glum and you bum And turn blue
Why do we love when she's mean?
And she can be so obscene
Try the mike.
My Maureen
-Patched. -Thanks.
You know, I feel great now.
I feel lousy.
Hey, honey. We're-- "Pookie"?
You never called me "Pookie."
Forget it. We're patched.
The Tango: Maureen
