Joanne: 
The samples won't delay but the cable- 

Mark: 
There's another way 
Say something...anything 

Joanne: 
Test one, two, three 

Mark: 
Anything but that 

J: 
This is weird 

M: 
It's weird 

J: 
Very weird 

M: 
Fucking weird 

J: 
I'm so mad that I don't know what to do 
Fighting with microphones 
Freezing down to my bones 
And to top it all off I'm with you 

M: 
Feel like going insane 
Got a fire in your brain 
And you're thinking of drinking gasoline 

J: 
As a matter of fact 

M: 
Honey, I know that act 
It's called the tango maureen 
The tango maureen 
It's a dark dizzy merry-go-round 
As she keeps you dangling (J: you're wrong) 
Your heart she is mangling (J: it's different with me) 
And you toss and you turn 
Cause her cold eyes can burn 
And you yearn and you churn and rebound 

J: 
I think I know what you mean 

Both: 
The tango Maureen 

M: 
Has she ever pouted her lips and called you pookie? (J: never) 
Have you ever doubted a kiss or two? 

J: 
This is Spooky
Did you swoon when she walked in the door? (M: every time, so be cautious) 
Did she moon over other boys? (M: more than moon) 
I'm getting nauseus 

(Start to tango)

M: 
Where did you learn to Tango? 

J: 
With the French ambassador's daughter in her dorm room at 
Mrs. Porters. And you? 

J: 
With Ninnett Himmelfarb, the Rabbi's daughter at the 
Scarsdale Jewish Community Center. 

M: 
It's hard to do this backwards 

J: 
You should try it in heels 

(Start to tango again)

J: 
She cheated 

M: 
She cheated 

J: 
Maureen cheated 

M: 
Fucking cheated 

J: 
I'm defeated, I should give up right now 

M: 
Gotta look on the bright side with all of your might 

J: 
I'd fall for her still anyhow 

Both: 
When you're dancing her dance 
You don't stand a chance 
Her grip on romance makes you fall 

M: 
So you think might as well 

J: 
Dance the tango to hell 

Both: 
At least I'll have tango'd at all 

Both: 
The tango maureen 
Gotta dance till your diva is through 
You pretend to believe her 
Cause in the end you can't leave her 
But the end it will come 
Still you have to play dumb 
Till you're glum, and your bum and turn blue 

M: 
Why do we love when she's mean? 

J: 
And she can be so obscene 

J: 
My Maureen 

Both: 
The tango Maureen.
