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.
Find a way out
Get what you can
Keep your head now
Listen when I sing
C'mon get out outta here
C'mon get out over me
C'mon get out
God don't need ya
Find a home now (A home now)
See where you get (Where you get)
Sleep alone now (Alone now)
Or makin' a friend
C'mon get out outta here
C'mon get out over me
C'mon get out
God don't need ya
I know you're thinking 'bout yourself (About yourself)
Why would you think of no one else? (Of no one else)
I'll keep on movin' with the sound (Vin with the sound)
And sure do hope you come around
C'mon get out outta here
C'mon get out over me
C'mon get out
God don't need ya
Oh get out
Get what you can
Keep your head now
Listen when I sing
C'mon get out outta here
C'mon get out over me
C'mon get out
God don't need ya
Find a home now (A home now)
See where you get (Where you get)
Sleep alone now (Alone now)
Or makin' a friend
C'mon get out outta here
C'mon get out over me
C'mon get out
God don't need ya
I know you're thinking 'bout yourself (About yourself)
Why would you think of no one else? (Of no one else)
I'll keep on movin' with the sound (Vin with the sound)
And sure do hope you come around
C'mon get out outta here
C'mon get out over me
C'mon get out
God don't need ya
Oh get out

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.

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.
The Night We Met

This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"
