Ariel

A song that was really popular one summer during the mid-70s, by some one-hit-wonder named Dean Friedman that no one remembers. It was popular because people liked listening to the intro.

The song started out, "AAAAaaaa-AAAAaaaaAAAAAriEEEEEeeeeeEEEEElllll". No one remembers what came after that because no one could focus on the song without their mind wandering before the intro was over. But somewhere in the middle of the song, it went like this:

She wore a peasant blouse with nothin' underneath
I said "Hi"
She said "Yeah, I guess I am"

do time

1. Serve a prison sentence.

2. Serve a hitch in the military, especially if drafted.

3. Get grounded.

After spending most of his teen years doing time (3) for the rents, the kid couldn't wait, so he upped and did time (2) as soon as he could. That got old, so he split before his time was up, got caught, did some time (1) in the big house, and still had to do the rest of his time when he got out. It was getting to be a habit.
