  I got a boy he smiles a lot
He said as he trembled in his spot
But kids and wives weren't on their minds
they wanted to touch each other's behinds
The Siesta Inn, and a jouncing bed, is what they got.



     Beautiful mind

Being happy doesn't mean everything is perfect.

It means you've decided to see beyond the imperfection

They were both in the same condition
feelin' horny as hell


Tell him when l come up to him and ask to play the record, l'm gonna say: ''Voulez-vous jouer ce disque?''
'Voulez-vous, will you kiss my dick?'
Will you play my record? One-track mind!

to fuck was their one true ambition.

Oops, sorry about that!  I think I've read the short story too many times.   :)  I went and looked up the line I was thinking of -  it's from Aguirre's point of view, looking at Ennis:

"..Last summer had goddamn near twenty-five percent loss. I don’t want that again. YOU,” he said to Ennis, taking in the ragged hair, the big nicked hands, the jeans torn.... “
