[Verse 1]. There's a place way down in Bed Stuy Where a boy lives behind bricks. He's got an eye for girls of eighteen And he turns them out like tricks. I went down to a place in Bed Stuy A little liquor on my lips I let him climb inside my body And held him captive in my kiss.[Pre-Chorus].e's got an eye for girls of eighteen And he turns them out like tricks.

Punctuated equilibrium (also called punctuated equilibria) is a theory in evolutionary biology which proposes that once species appear in the fossil record the population will become stable, showing little evolutionary change for most of its geological history. This state of little or no morphological change is called stasis.
The late Stephen Jay Gould was obsessed with punctuated equilibrium from the time it was invented, and the obsession comes through so clearly in Punctuated Equilibrium that a reader would think he invented it all. The book itself is a 396 page extract from Goulds 1433 page Structure of Evolutionary Theory (Harvard University Press, 2002).
