much trouble?<\/p>\n

Nah…
\n<\/span>
\nLike Goldilocks, the singer in this song seems to think he’s got just enough trouble.<\/span><\/p>\n

This is, of course, for those who’ve been paying attention (you know who you are and your gold star is in the mail), the second version of this song in two days.<\/p>\n

I didn’t hate the first version (or I wouldn’t have put it up, hey?), despite a number of flaws, not the least of which were heart arhythmia-producing timing lapses. But I like this ver better. Still, you shouldn’t be surprised if, sometime in the next year or so, yet another version pops up here. (But not tomorrow, I swear.) Don’t ask me why I’ve become infatuated with this tune. It’s as mindless as a JayCees mixer, for sure. Yet, somehow, it’s re-ingratiated itself with me after a decade of neglect.<\/p>\n

One thing comes to mind… out of hundreds of songs… this is one of the very few tunes one might actually consider a love song.<\/span> (As opposed, don’t ya know, to broken heart songs, cryin’ in your beer songs, gonna end it all songs, etc…)<\/p>\n

\n

You’re too much trouble, Christine<\/span>
\nYou’re too much trouble, Christine
\n<\/span>You’re too much trouble, Christine<\/span><\/span>
\nSo Why do I love you, Christine<\/span>
\n You’re too much trouble, Christine<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Christine on a beach, Christine on a plane
\nChristine in a cafe with the boulevardiers
\nChristine on the set Christine in my head
\nChristine in my heart and tearing up my bed<\/p>\n

You’re too much trouble, Christine…<\/span><\/span>
\n<\/span>
\nChristine I’m terrified just holding your hand
\nChristine you twist me like no one else can
\nChristine you’re crazy but you got a plan
\nworld domination begins with one man<\/span><\/p>\n

You’re too much trouble, Christine<\/span>
\nYou’re too much trouble, Christine
\n<\/span><\/span>You’re too much trouble, Christine<\/span><\/span>
\nSo Why do I love you, Christine<\/span>
\n You’re too much trouble, Christine<\/span>
