Was the first thing you thought -

That's great it starts with an earthquake, birds, snakes, and air planes???

I read it in the DH forum and the song won't go away. Anyone else???

Classic early MTV, but I don't know if they get the same rank as 80s REM. I looked like the kid in the REM video in HS. It was weird. I wonder if I can find some pics. Never took many pictures. Don't even have one of my favorite dog ever.

Between a rock and a hard place.
Her name was Lola, she was a showgirl
with yellow feathers in her hair and a dress cut down to there
she would merengue and do the cha-cha
and while she tried to be a star
Tony always tended bar
across the crowded floor, they worked from 8 til 4
they were young and they had each other
who could ask for more?

CHORUS:

At the copa (CO!) Copacabana (Copacabana)
the hottest spot north of Havana (here)
at the copa (CO!) Copacabana
music and passion were always in fashion
At the copa.... they fell in love

His name was Rico
he wore a diamond
he was escorted to his chair, he saw Lola dancing there
and when she finished,he called her over
but Rico went a bit to far
Tony sailed across the bar
and then the punches flew and chairs were smashed in two
there was blood and a single gun shot
but just who shot who?

REPEAT CHORUS

At the copa... she lost her love

Her name is Lola, she was a showgirl,
but that was 30 years ago, when they used to have a show
now it's a disco, but not for Lola,
still in the dress she used to wear,
faded feathers in her hair
she sits there so refined,and drinks herself half-blind
she lost her youth and she lost her Tony
now she's lost her mind

REPEAT CHORUS

At the copa... don't fall in love
don't fall in love

you know, i once watched an interview w/ barry on the daily show or tonight show or something like that, and he came off as a really nice guy.

too bad he writes schmaltz.

he wrote the jingle for state farm insurance ("like a good neighbor, state farm is there").

Hey maybe the world already has ended?

And we're living within a state of perpetual glimpses of memories in a weird stasis of infinite recollection.... :confused: :think:

Ehh - me neither until someone pointed it out to me. Not to mention - no one was really flirting with Megan. That was straight up "hittin on" going on there. :D
