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.
Ladies, you're damn right
You can't read a man's mind
We're living in two tribes
And heading for war
Well, nobody's perfect
We all gotta work it
But fellas, we're worth it
So don't break the law
Your call's late, big mistake
You gotta hang about in limbo for as long as I take
Next time, read my mind
And I'll be good to you
We're gift-wrapped kitty Kats,
We're only turning into tigers when we gotta fight back
Let's go, Eskimo
Out into the blue....
Come take my hand, understand that you can,
You're my man & I need you tonight
Come make my dreams
Honey, hard as it seems
Loving me is as easy as pie (Aii)
I'm just a Love Machine
Feeding my fantasy
Give me a kiss or three & I'm fine
I need a squeeze a day
'Stead of this negligee
What will the neighbours say this time
I've been going crazy while you sleep
Searching for a language that the 2 of us can speak
So, Mr. prehistoric make your wheel
& I'll breathe underwater 'cause I like the way it feels
Your call's late, big mistake
You gotta hang about in limbo for as long as I take
Next time, read my mind
And I'll be good to you
We're gift-wrapped kitty Kats,
We're only turning into tigers when we gotta fight back
Let's go, Eskimo
Out into the blue....
Come take my hand, understand that you can,
You're my man & I need you tonight
Come make my dreams
Honey, hard as it seems
Loving me is as easy as pie
I'm just a Love Machine
Feeding my fantasy
Give me a kiss or three & I'm fine
I need a squeeze a day
'Stead of this negligee
What will the neighbours say this time?
Oh, it's very new
Can anybody tell me what to do
Oh, this feeling's very strange
Can anybody tell me what's your game
(Oh) A little education
(Oh) to give you motivation
(Oh) We'll turn the situation round
(Oh) 'cause I don't wanna change ya
(Oh) Making you a stranger
(Oh) I'll only re-arrange ya for now
(Oh) I'm just a Love Machine
(Oh, to give you motivation
(Oh) I'm just a Love Machine
(Oh) I'm just a love machine
(Oh, to give you motivation
(Oh) I'm just a Love Machine
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

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.

Light Up The Sky

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.

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
The part he misses toward the end is supposed to be somethin like "To stick this generation". I dunno, he says it regretfully as soon as the songs over 'casue he had forgotten it. Poor Alex! I love this song, still havnt found the promised video Lotus 9...
