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.
Only clowns would play with those balloons
What d'ya wanna look like Barbie for
Dear oh Lord, it's easy
Roasting, roasting, roasting deed
Mahogany
Titties that live on and on and on and on
Only clowns would play with those balloons
What d'ya wanna look like Barbie for
Dear oh Lord, it's easy
Only clowns would play with those balloons
Passive when I'm in record
Day and night I'm watching you
Roasting, roasting, roasting deed
Mahogany
Titties that live on and on and on and on
Only clowns would play with those balloons
What d'ya wanna look like Barbie for
Dear oh Lord, it's easy
What d'ya wanna look like Barbie for
Dear oh Lord, it's easy
Roasting, roasting, roasting deed
Mahogany
Titties that live on and on and on and on
Only clowns would play with those balloons
What d'ya wanna look like Barbie for
Dear oh Lord, it's easy
Only clowns would play with those balloons
Passive when I'm in record
Day and night I'm watching you
Roasting, roasting, roasting deed
Mahogany
Titties that live on and on and on and on
Only clowns would play with those balloons
What d'ya wanna look like Barbie for
Dear oh Lord, it's easy

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.

This song is def a twin to "Unfair" (a song she has been quoted as saying is about falling in love with someone who is already in a relationship) so it is presumably about the same person. Given the references to buying an apartment and not being able to see her love interest "after tonight," it's most likely that she's moving away and she'll "wait a day to break the bad news" (i.e. notifying him that she's leaving once she's already gone).
And, of course, the fact that she sees in him a fellow "idealist" and "dreamer" (terms commonly given to people with the INFP personality on the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)) portends that she'll always be left wondering if they would've been perfect together.

MikeyPaints and Crossword Smile posted great analyses. I was curious about the lyrics this morning because I honestly thought she was singing in a foreign language. Then the lyrics appeared meaningless, but clearly they are about artificial glamor and the "fake plastic girl." The "Passive when I'm in record day & night" is still a little confounding but CrosswordSmile, I believe, is going in the right direction.
By the bye, Crossword Smile is a reference to a lyric by The Cars, right?
