Lyrics & Translation

[English]

What about you? Tell me one of your

stories. All right.

>> Once once I got on the subway, right,

and it was at night and I rode it all

the way to Brooklyn

just for the hell of it.

We talked till like 2:00. It was this

perfect evening,

more or less.

>> All of a sudden, we realized we're in

Yemen.

>> I'm sorry. So, we is

>> We would be me and Rick.

>> Who's Rick? Who's Rick?

>> My husband.

>> Oh, so so you're divorced?

>> No.

>> Oh, I'm I'm sorry. So, you're widowed

hopefully.

>> No, I'm still married.

>> So, uh, tell me, how do how do you think

your husband would feel about you

sitting here with me

sliding your foot so far up my pant leg

you can count the change in my pocket?

>> Don't worry. I imagine he'd be okay with

you because really he's okay with Ethan.

>> Ethan? There's there's an Ethan.

>> Ethan is my

boyfriend.

>> What?

>> What?

>> So, explain something to me here. Um,

what kind of relationship do you imagine

us having if you already have a husband

and a boyfriend?

>> I suppose mainly sexual.

>> Huh?

I'm sorry it didn't work out.

>> What not work out? I'm seeing her again

on Thursday.

Didn't you listen to the story?

>> Didn't you listen to the story? I mean,

this is twisted. How could you get

involved with a woman like this?

>> Well, you know, I had some trouble with

it at first, too. But the way I look at

it is I get all the good stuff, all the

fun, all the talking, all the sex, and

none of the responsibility.

I mean, this is every guy's fantasy.

>> Oh, yeah. That is not true. Ross, is

this your fantasy?

>> No, of course not.

>> Yeah. Yeah, it is.

>> So, you guys don't mind going out with

someone else who's going out with

someone else?

>> I couldn't do it.

>> Good for you, Joey.

>> When I'm with a woman, I need to know

that I'm going out with more people than

she is.

>> Well, you know, monogamy can be a tricky

concept. I mean, anthropologically

speaking.

Fine. Fine. All right. Now, you'll never

know.

>> We're getting

all right.

>> There's a theory put forth by Richard

Leaky. Oh.
