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.
Girl
I saw you dancing
I'm looking like trash
But yet you're glancing
I said: "Hello,
I'm a rock star",
She said: "I don't care who you are
Just take me with you,
And I will blow your mind"
This girl was crazy
Completely out of line
But how she amazed me
Should've seen her grind
I guess she blew my mind
So we've gone past dating
She's spending my cash
And I'm up waiting
I said: "Baby,
Why the new car?"
She said:
"I'm the girlfriend of a star
Just let me have this
And I will blow your mind"
This girl was crazy
Completely out of line
But how she amazed me
I guess she blew my mind
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
I should of seen her grind
I guess she blew my mind
So typically me
Always falling for the easy
And now I can't breathe
So typically me
Always falling for the easy
And when you can't see
She's gonna blow your mind
This girl was crazy
Completely out of line
But how she amazed me
Should've seen her grind
I guess she blew my mind
I saw you dancing
I'm looking like trash
But yet you're glancing
I said: "Hello,
I'm a rock star",
She said: "I don't care who you are
Just take me with you,
And I will blow your mind"
This girl was crazy
Completely out of line
But how she amazed me
Should've seen her grind
I guess she blew my mind
So we've gone past dating

And I'm up waiting

Why the new car?"
She said:
"I'm the girlfriend of a star
Just let me have this

This girl was crazy

And now I can't breathe
So typically me
Always falling for the easy

But how she amazed me
Should've seen her grind
I guess she blew my mind

Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
This song is fantastic! I didn't like it at first, but it really suits Nick's voice!
