Cada día es igual por mi pasillo
Nunca llegó a mi puerta sin oír el chiflido
De un chavo que me dice que me está esperando
Lo que él debería hacer es ir y darse un baño
Y un aburrido me detiene otra vez
Y yo le finjo interés
Cuando de pronto sale del ascensor
La imagen de mis sueños
Él que yo quiero para mi dueño

El chico del apartamento 512
Él que hace a mi pobre corazón saltar
Es a quien le hago cartas noche y día
Que no puedo entregar
El chico del apartamento 512
Es él quien me hace tartamuda y más
Es en quien yo pienso y sueño noche y día
Él, solo él

Y un viejo me invita "chica, ven a verme"
Y le digo que no me caen los viejos rabos verdes
Y camino a mi cuarto muy lentamente
Con la esperanza de verlo
Y cuando sale a caminar
Me saluda con una sonrisa
Que de veras me conquista

El chico del apartamento 512
Él que hace a mi pobre corazón saltar
Es a quien le hago cartas noche y día
Que no puedo entregar
El chico del apartamento 512
Es él quien me hace tartamuda y más
Es en quien yo pienso y sueño noche y día
Él, solo él

Pero hoy por fin me he decidido de veras
Todo mi amor a confesarle
Toco su puerta y se me enchina la piel
Y me contesta una güera
Y mi corazón se quiebra

El chico del apartamento 512
Él que hace a mi pobre corazón saltar
Es a quien le hago cartas noche y día
Que no puedo entregar
El chico del apartamento 512
Es él quien me hace tartamuda y más
Es en quien yo pienso y sueño noche y día
Él, solo él

De veras que sentí mi corazón quebrándose
Cuando de repente me pregunto
¿Buscabas a mi hermano?

El chico del apartamento 512
Él que hace a mi pobre corazón saltar
Es a quien le hago cartas noche y día
Que no puedo entregar
El chico del apartamento 512
Es él quien me hace tartamuda y más
Es en quien yo pienso y sueño noche y día
Él, solo él

El chico del apartamento 512
Él que hace a mi pobre corazón saltar
Es a quien le hago cartas noche y día
Que no puedo entregar

El chico del apartamento 512
El chico del apartamento 512
El chico del apartamento 512

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.

Spirit Within
Bertoldi Brothers
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.

Corpse I Fell In Love With
Gadjits, The
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.

Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.
