I know.

1. Because there were already 58 other songs about streets with bridges

[HopeHoops]

3. No, but I LIKE that reasoning!

[old mark]

2. Because that is the "Title"....

and because the song is about smoking pot and going across the 59th street bridge...

Other than that there is NO REASON...

added; The 59th street bridge is the Queensboro bridge...here is a link to a WIKI article on the song:

Sorry - I didn't mean to take you seriously, but I got carried away.

4. Ah, but there is! The hint is in the opening line, "Slow down, you move too fast."

[old mark]

5. ...and remember EVERYTHING written by S&G at that time

was at least in part about smoking pot.

7. Yeah, I'd say that's a fair statement.

[alphafemale]

6. Because that's where they used to buy their pot nt

8. Art Garfunkle was arrested for pot in '04 and '05...He is now 63, and I am sure

higher than a fucking kite.

9. Okay, another hint: It involves a motorcycle.

10. having your "undercarriage" jostled while riding across the bridge

is a groovy feelin' I suppose.

11. Especially if you're riding commando!
