about

For Teri and Cheri and Jim

lyrics

Such a strange coupling
I guess I didn't understand
Some people are like magnets
Can't let go of each other's hand
Teri came from a bygone era
Cheri was ahead of the curve
Jim sat somewhere in the middle
Into each other they did swerve

They will live for a million years
Their light won't dim
They are as perfect as a right triangle
Teri and Cheri and Jim

They talked non-verbally
A knowing nod and/or smile
It was a language you can only dream of
They kept it in a secret file
I wished that I were like them
But I was on the outside
'Cos I knew if I got closer
They would run
They would hide

Do I sound a little jealous
Do I think they have the luck
Some people get away with murder
Some people get mowed down by a truck

Sure they got their problems
But they're lots more blessed than cursed
I fell for Teri and then Cheri
But Jim he got there first

They had their own rockin' trio
Wished they formed a quartet
They had about a million children
And they're not done yet
They were always more special than me
Next to them I felt bland
They never let me into their little world
So I went and started my own band
