Episode 188 : Still crazy after all these years
I met my old lover on the street last night
She seemed so glad to see me; I just smiled
And we talked about some old times
And we drank ourselves some beer
Still crazy after all these years
Still crazy after all these years
They are always together- 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
I'm not the kind of man who tends to socialize
I seem to lean on old familiar ways
And I ain't no fool for love songs that whisper in my ears
Still crazy after all these years
Still crazy after all these years
Still together after all these years. I think this happens only in Bangalore, I never heard of this before from any other place.
Four in the morning, tapped out, yawning
Longing my life away
I'll never worry; why should I?
It's all gonna fade
I don't know how many people noticed it. I don't think they care.
Now I sit by my window and I watch the cars go by
I fear I'll do some damage one fine day
But I would not be convicted by a jury of my peers
Still crazy after all these years
Still crazy, still crazy
Still crazy after all these years
... that Mahatma Gandhi and Kasturba Gandhi meet near Cubbon Park every time. If you do not believe me, ask any Bangalorean. Or take a look at the image below.

I'd never have thought that street names could have given so much food for thought.
