Moonrock Mambo Songtext
von Yo La Tengo

Like a thumb in a rubber glove
Or a moonrock in the sky above
I′m thinking, could it be
I'm falling in love

Like a Chunky or a Charleston Chew
Like shoe crab soup or chicken stew
Like Cinderella′s other shoe
I just wanna' be next to you

I wanna' be
I wanna′ be next to you
I wanna′ be
I wanna' be next to you

Like a palindrome, or a friend indeed
Like wow, or Tara Key
It seems I always need remindin′
What a fool believes


Like Horton hearing a Who
Like everything old becoming new
Like looking out for number two
I just wanna' be next to you

I wanna′ be
I wanna' to be next to you
Yeah, I wanna′ be
I wanna' be next to you

Like Dr. Tom, like Mr. Met
Like Professor Frink, like a Chia pet
Like Eddie Bow, like Bob Levito
Like Jill Talley, like Don Cheadle

I wanna' be next to you
I wanna′ be next to you
I wanna′ be next to you
I wanna' be next to you

Like eatin′ ribs with Calvin Trillin
Like Timothy Carey in The Killing
Like Steve Coogan and Rebecca Front
Like Jefferson Airplane except no Grunt


I wanna' be next to you
I wanna′ be next to you
I wanna' be next to you
I wanna′ be next to you
I wanna' be next to you

I wanna' be next to you
I wanna′ be next to you
I wanna′ be next to you
I wanna' be next to you
