Warren wanted a Beach Boys thing for this one, and Carl Wilson and Billy Hinsche came in, with Carl arranging the vocal parts. The other harmony vocalists (credited as the "Gentlemen Boys") were Jackson Browne, J.D. Souther, Zevon's longtime backers Waddy Wachtel and Jorge Calderon, and Linda Rondstadt/Stone Poneys guitarist Kenny Edwards.
Hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello,
Hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello,
Hello
Mmm, this morning my man exclusively introduced me
To some good extra loving
He was licking, and sucking on everything, just the way he should
This morning's extra loving was good
We lay there sweaty, sex funky, happy as we want to be
Loving exclusively, my man and me all night all morning
So our stomachs were growling, hungrily
So I jumped up and rushed to the store
In hopes of coming back and getting a little more of
This morning's good extra loving
At the market the people were pushing and shoving
Trying to be the next in line, the turn was mine
The new girl at the counter was cute, but not as fine as me
Was this some kind of woman's intuition, some kind of insecurity
Nah, 'cause my man is happy at home loving me exclusively
So I shook my head, "whats up?"
"Hello,"she smiled as she rung me up
Orange juice $3.29, Croissants $4.85
She sniffed, Butter 89 cents
She sniffed, Strawberries $1.50 a pint
She sniffed, and sniffed, and sniffed, and sniffed again
And then replied, "Raheem, right?"
"Right."
Hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello,

He reuses the verse melody from the previous album's "Dirty Little Religion", the topics of the verses are all over the place, and he packs too many words into one line (goes to show...) and too few in another (it's pretty hard to find), and rhymes "Henley Regatta" with "Persona non grata", but gets away with it all as only he could.

Like a lot of the other comments are saying, I think this mainly about voyeurism. If the song was about his girlfriend, then why would he use the word spy. If you are a spy it means you shouldn't be caught, that is kind of the whole point, and if you are a voyeur, the whole point of the pleasure you get from it, is the fact that the other people don't know you are watching them. See a bit of a connection there?

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
Not quite sure about this song, I'm guessing the checkout girl noticed his cologne or something, but does Jill (or the narrator) find out her man was cheating on her with the checkout girl? Or is she an old girlfriend? what is the point of this song? Any ideas, people?
Jill kinda has as "O Harry" twist at the end here. At the beginning she's expressing her intimacy with her man by saying "This morning my man exclusively introduced me to some good extra loving". Jill is implying that only her man and no one else, is sharing this kind of special intimacy she describes. However, when she goes to the store and sees the cute girl at the counter, her insecurities and womanly intuition start getting to her. She tries to shake her doubts and act calm, but it is revealed that her intuition was right; the girl does know her man in some familiar way ("Raheem, right?") , presuming that Jill's loving intimacy with her man may not be as exclusive as she originally expressed at first ("right").<br /> <br /> The next track, I think explains the next part of this storyline where Jill basically goes off on her lol. ("Sister girl, I know you don't understand,<br /> but you going have to understand he's my man now.")<br /> <br />
