A lot Like Birds - Sesame Street Is No Place For Romance [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

"You must know deep in your heart of hearts that people are supposed to make love. It is our main purpose in life! All those other activities... Playing the violin, washing dishes, reading novels, drinking wine, are just ways of passing time... Until you can make love again."

I know something you don't
You'll never know
I know something you don't

It's mine, It's my
She's mine, it's my
Space, space!

You think I've gone far with
All of these damsels
You think I've gone far with
All of these damsels

You're busy stealing glances
And I know
That nothing in this world's for free

It's mine, It's my
She's mine, it's my
Space, space!

Don't you think that we haven't noticed your uncanny silence
(Uncanny, uncanny silence)
We've made note of those circles
That are deepening underneath your eyes
(Under your eyes, under your eyes)
Going "Where have you been?"
(Where have you been, where have you been?)

Pretending like an elephant
Doesn't make you wise
And I think it's time
(Yeah, I think it's time)
That you see it for yourself

Pretending like an elephant
It doesn't make me wise
No matter how loud I claim it
It won't scour away the grime
And I know how you listen
You won't ever hear a thing
You'll just sit there and you'll blame me
While the mockingbird sings

Get ready to catch a hundred more
Get ready to catch the door

We'll see
