its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
Put your hands in the air
You look like the girl from the fair with the bubbly eyes
Stood and watched you, pulling at a rock,
But her rock don't compromise
Come up to me say why are you so skinny I'm pretty for a boy
Said thanks for the insult and complement
Y'all never forget my face no more
I can hardly beat you
And I know it's getting harder to beat you
So I'll be driving you where nobody knows
City I could take you, it'll take a little second to break you
So I'll be driving you where nobody knows
I'll be driving you where nobody knows
Looking pretty pinks
Sitting on a swing
That don't mean a thing at all
The heels of my feets are barking like a pack of dogs
Skinning with a cone what I saw
Take it for your word
Take it for a ride
Take it for the evening dead or alive
Warming up the car packin us some powder to play
I can hardly beat you
And I know it's getting harder to beat you
So I'll be driving you where nobody knows
City I could take you, it'll take a little second to break you
So I'll be driving you where nobody knows
I'll be driving you where nobody knows
Jessica
Head like a stone
Stoned like a rock
Clogging up your nose again
Poppa's are searching
Devil was a knocking
Juice swimming over my face
Here it goes now
You look like the girl from the fair with the bubbly eyes
Stood and watched you, pulling at a rock,
But her rock don't compromise
Come up to me say why are you so skinny I'm pretty for a boy
Said thanks for the insult and complement
Y'all never forget my face no more
I can hardly beat you
And I know it's getting harder to beat you
So I'll be driving you where nobody knows
City I could take you, it'll take a little second to break you
So I'll be driving you where nobody knows
I'll be driving you where nobody knows
Looking pretty pinks
Sitting on a swing
That don't mean a thing at all
The heels of my feets are barking like a pack of dogs
Skinning with a cone what I saw
Take it for your word
Take it for a ride
Take it for the evening dead or alive
Warming up the car packin us some powder to play
I can hardly beat you
And I know it's getting harder to beat you
So I'll be driving you where nobody knows
City I could take you, it'll take a little second to break you
So I'll be driving you where nobody knows
I'll be driving you where nobody knows
Jessica
Head like a stone
Stoned like a rock
Clogging up your nose again
Poppa's are searching
Devil was a knocking
Juice swimming over my face
Here it goes now

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 certainly did earn that reputation.
Fortnight
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift
The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.
Holiday

@[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 always thought that he says "i'll be dropping you where nobody knows" meaning he killed her hahahaa :S
