Yo La Tengo - Moonrock Mambo Lyrics

Like a thumb in a rubber glove
Or a moon rock in the sky above
I'm thinking, could it be
That 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 want to be next to you

I want to be
I want to be next to you
I want to be
I want to be next to you

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

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

I want to be
I want to be next to you
Yeah, I want to be
I want to 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 want to be next to you
I want to be next to you
I want to be next to you
I want to be next to you

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

I want to be next to you
I want to be next to you
I want to be next to you
I want to be next to you
