its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
well there's a party going on later on tonight
and everyone's invited
plus you, you know, you know, you can't stop me
i'm partial to your lips and your eyes
they both compliment your thighs
ohhh those thighs
youre the first to arrive
the fist to TASTE A DRINK
the first to hit the scene
and you make all the guys
stumble into walls
your showing off your curves
your hiding under skirts
ohhh that skirt
your such a flirt
to every that you meet
and why is purity so beautiful to me
filthy rag, a dirty whore i have been
could captivated as a prisoner of my sin
your the first
the first to arrive
the first to TAKE A DRINK
and everyone's invited
plus you, you know, you know, you can't stop me
i'm partial to your lips and your eyes
they both compliment your thighs
ohhh those thighs
youre the first to arrive
the fist to TASTE A DRINK
the first to hit the scene
and you make all the guys
stumble into walls
your showing off your curves
your hiding under skirts
ohhh that skirt
your such a flirt
to every that you meet
and why is purity so beautiful to me
filthy rag, a dirty whore i have been
could captivated as a prisoner of my sin
your the first
the first to arrive
the first to TAKE A DRINK

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.

In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

@[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.
basically its talking about a girl who's deemed beautiful by everyone who is obviously desperate for something but the singer cant get with her cus he wants a good girl. he knows shes hot but doesnt want her like that.
