I had never really listened to the words, but I liked the beat.

It was on a jukebox in an out of the way lodge-café in the foothills.

I played it with a couple other songs.

I could then clearly discern the lyrics and I was kind of creeping-out, people were repeatedly glancing at me.

I got up, paid the waitress in silence, and felt wtf for the rest of the day.

I returned to that location about fifteen years later.
I guess they felt obliged to play it for me just as I was starting to enjoy my coffee.

Not sure why people were glaring at you playing that song. It was a huge hit in the 80’s. How would they remember you as a one time customer 15 years later? Why would they play that exact song?
