naked girl fallin' down the stairs. naked girl fallin' down the stairs. all the way down she was up in the air. naked girl fallin' down the stairs. it was a naked girl right in my face. high class culture all over the place. my watch stopped tickin'.shoes came unlaced. when i watched her trippin' down a staircase. it looked like a mistake at a steeplechase. a busted flywheel at stock car race. i fell in love at a terrible pace. when someone gave her a shove down a staircase.

suddenly the whole room stands in pairs. no ones arm to hold
