We walk together, we're walking down the street. I just can't get enough, I just can't get enough.

15. I Touch Myself - Scala Choir
I love myself, I want you to love me. when I feel down I want you above me.
16. Hock It - The Blow
Your mean tricks, like the wetness of your lips when you say 'just put your heart here in my hand.' And though I know you might hock it, I can't keep it in my pocket. I've tried, but I can't. Oh man.
17. Gumboots - Paul Simon
I said 'hey Senorita that's astute' I said 'why don't we get together and call ourselves an institute?'
