I want you to be crazy 'cause you're boring baby when you're sane

SCENE: Quiet neighborhood, late at night. ROSIE, a little red pickup truck, passes slowly along sleepy streets. A man (HE) and woman (SHE) are in the cab. As the truck turns from one street to the next, he speaks.

HE: Oh, I forgot to say hello to my street.
SHE: "Say hello to your street?"
HE: Yeah, the last street we crossed has the same name as me, so every time I pass it, I say hello. But I forgot just now, 'cause we were talking. (looks up the block) It comes out again up there. We could just go around and see it again. (thinks for a moment). No, no, driving completely around the block just to talk to a street would be...it would be...excessively eccentric.
SHE: Hmmm...it's interesting where you draw the line with that.
