its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
Don't want to hang around anyone today
I'm sick of playing the same old games
'Cause I know I can't win them anyway
And I will dream a different lie
Stuck in between her thighs and wonder just when I will meet her
All I really need is someone like Phoebe
Someone to excite my fantasy
And every night I'll dream that she is here with me
And i will be the only one for her
And I'm wasting time going blind thinking she'll be mine tonight
Wasting time going blind thinking she'll be mine
I've been in love since the day I saw fast times
It's on a permanent rewind and can you guess my favorite part
I used to like tossing off to her pool scene
Now I'm kissing TV screens
She's the only star who's touched my heart on
All i really need is someone like Phoebe
Someone to excite my fantasy and every night I'll dream that she is here with me
And i will be the only one for her
And I'm looking for a fast time
Watching out for bright lights
Send me off to private school
When I'm with you it's paradise
Looking for a fast time
Watching out for bright lights
Send me off to private school
When I'm with you it's paradise
When I'm with you it's paradise
When I'm with you it's paradise
When I'm with you it's paradise
All I really need is someone like Phoebe
Someone to excite my fantasy and every night I'll dream that she is here with me
And I will be the only one for her
And I'm wasting time going blind thinking she'll be mine tonight
Wasting time going blind thinking she'll be mine
Wasting time going blind thinking she'll be mine tonight
Wasting time going blind thinking she'll be mine tonight
Wasting time going blind thinking she'll be mine tonight
Wasting time going blind thinking she'll be mine tonight
I'm sick of playing the same old games
'Cause I know I can't win them anyway
And I will dream a different lie
Stuck in between her thighs and wonder just when I will meet her
All I really need is someone like Phoebe
Someone to excite my fantasy
And every night I'll dream that she is here with me
And i will be the only one for her
And I'm wasting time going blind thinking she'll be mine tonight
Wasting time going blind thinking she'll be mine
I've been in love since the day I saw fast times
It's on a permanent rewind and can you guess my favorite part
I used to like tossing off to her pool scene
Now I'm kissing TV screens
She's the only star who's touched my heart on
All i really need is someone like Phoebe
Someone to excite my fantasy and every night I'll dream that she is here with me
And i will be the only one for her
And I'm looking for a fast time
Watching out for bright lights
Send me off to private school
When I'm with you it's paradise
Looking for a fast time
Watching out for bright lights
Send me off to private school
When I'm with you it's paradise
When I'm with you it's paradise
When I'm with you it's paradise
When I'm with you it's paradise
All I really need is someone like Phoebe
Someone to excite my fantasy and every night I'll dream that she is here with me
And I will be the only one for her
And I'm wasting time going blind thinking she'll be mine tonight
Wasting time going blind thinking she'll be mine
Wasting time going blind thinking she'll be mine tonight
Wasting time going blind thinking she'll be mine tonight
Wasting time going blind thinking she'll be mine tonight
Wasting time going blind thinking she'll be mine tonight

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.

"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.
