Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.
so u say we're broken up,
thats just enough shut up,
was i really that bad,
to where u make me that sad,
remember those times when i sacraficed so much,
just to feel your soft touch,
well thats fines, thats ok,
i never liked u anyway,
CHORUSx2: well i guess we're broken up, i guess there's no more us, thats all good with me, cuz i never liked u anyway
tell me, did everything i've ever done,
and everything i've ever said,
just float right by your fucking head,
i can't believe you'd do this to me,
you just watch, in a couple months you'll come back to me,
but wut if i don't play it that way,
wut if i don't follow everything you say,
CHORUSx2:well i guess we're broken up, i guess there's no more us, thats all good with me, cuz i never liked u anyway
now it's been that two whole months,
and look here you are,
you've just come right back from afar,
well i'm not just your little toy,
i'm not still your "little boy",
like you told me we're broken up,
so just go away and shut the fuck up!

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.

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?

The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.
Looks like a lot of people loooked at this one eh?
