New Mexico at Night
We are lucky to have chainsaws, playing checkers in our tuxedos. In the backseat we watch a movie about getting haircuts in a movie. The movie is about halloween. I found a dollar in the backseat and in the garbage we find some checkers. It's halloween so we wear tuxedos. I found a dollar lodged in your earring. In the backseat we turn on the jukebox with a chainsaw and our fingers. I found a dollar in your haircut, that's lucky. It's halloween in the movie and we are in the backseat. I found a dollar on halloween and watched a movie on television. In the backseat are some sunglasses. I used a dollar in the restaurant, to play checkers with checkers. I smoke a cigarette on a bicycle. The chainsaw is lucky and it's in the backseat. There's a dollar in the backseat. I rode a bicycle on halloween and left my tuxedo in the backseat. The backseat has a tuxedo in the backseat. I tied a chainsaw on the bicycle and ride the bicycle smoking a cigarette. It's similar to playing checkers in the backseat with a tuxedo made of garbage. It's similar to a restaurant made of backseats where you leave a bicycle in the backseat. You watch a movie in the restaurant and eat chicken with a chainsaw. Your earring's in the backseat with the checkers and the bicycle. I got a haircut and wear a tuxedo that is very similar to your earring. I got a haircut on my bicycle in the backseat. The movie is very similar to halloween. The movie has a chainsaw in the backseat. The movie is about getting a haircut in a tuxedo for a dollar. On halloween we go to the movies in tuxedos. The movie is about halloween. There are fingers in the movie about the backseat. The camera focuses on halloween. There are fingers in the movie about the restaurant where you wear tuxedos in the backseat. The camera focuses on a dollar. A baseball hits you in your haircut, and rolls off your tuxedo. In the movie the chainsaw lights a cigarette. In the movie about halloween we play checkers in the backseat. On halloween we look in the garbage and find a chainsaw. We play checkers on halloween. You have a ponytail in the restaurant. In the backseat you have a cigarette. You play checkers while you get a haircut on halloween. In the backseat we play checkers. We play checkers while you get a haircut. We're lucky we're in the backseat. We play checkers on halloween. On halloween we lose our fingers to the chainsaw near the jukebox. The chainsaw in the movie is dropped in the garbage. The fingers are in the backseat. The tuxedo is hung over the bicycle. On halloween the jukebox in the backseat plays a movie.
