its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
Yeah, my girlfriend takes me home when I'm too drunk to drive
And she doesn't get all jealous when I hang out with the guys
She laughs at my dumb jokes when no one does
She brings me Mexican food from Sombrero just because
Yeah, just because
And my girlfriend likes UL and DHC
And she's so smart and independent
I don't think she needs me
Quite half as much as I know I need her
I wonder why there's not another guy that she'd prefer
And when I feel like giving up
Like my world is falling down
I show up at 3 AM, she's still up watching Vacation
And I see her pretty face
It takes me away to a better place, and
I know that everything, know that everything, know that everything
Everything's gonna be fine
I know that everything, know that everything, know that everything
Everything's gonna be fine
Yeah, my girlfriend takes collect calls from the road
And it doesn't seem to matter that I'm lacking in the bulge
She laughs at my dumb jokes when no one does
She brings me Mexican food from Sombrero just because
And when I feel like giving up
Like my world is falling down
I show up at 3 AM, she's still up watching Vacation
And I see her pretty face
It takes me away to a better place, and
I know that everything, know that everything, know that everything
Everything's gonna be fine
I know that everything, know that everything, know that everything
Everything's gonna be fine
I know that everything, know that everything, know that everything
Everything's gonna be fine
I know that everything, know that everything, know that everything
Everything's gonna be fine
I know that everything, know that everything, know that everything
Everything's gonna be fine
I know that everything, know that everything, know that everything
Everything's gonna be fine
I know that everything, know that everything, know that everything
Everything's gonna be fine
I know that everything, know that everything, know that everything
Everything's gonna be fine
And she doesn't get all jealous when I hang out with the guys
She laughs at my dumb jokes when no one does
She brings me Mexican food from Sombrero just because
Yeah, just because
And my girlfriend likes UL and DHC
And she's so smart and independent
I don't think she needs me

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.

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.
