Yeah, I like the music for this tune a *lot* better then IAT, even if
it's almost as simple as a typical AC/DC tune. Sometimes simplicity
works a lot better then being all over the map, at least in Van Halen's
case.
Hagar's lyrics are dreadful, however.

I like it. Cool vibe and groove to the track. On first listen my initial
reaction was more positive than IAT which is a pretty decent track too. One
more to go with Learnig to See.

You gonna post it on binaries.heavy-metal?
I still haven't heard IAT on the radio yet. Not a complaint.

I suppose when Roth uses pizza pie in CGTSNM it's pure genius. Can we
stop the bitch fest about the lyrics?

Anyone that relentlessly uses food as a sexual metaphor in a song has
issues. I expect this tune to show up as an ad for Dennys any day now.

Why is it the only way (apparently) to defend this new VH crap is to change the
subject and deflect it onto a Roth VH song or lyric?
Neither Roth nor Hagar are great lyric writers, but at least Roth knew not to
take himself so seriously a lot of the times.
This is not the only board that Hagar's lyrics are being dissected on. The
disdain for this song is widespread.
John Schaefer
so concerned about lyrical content...we could certainly pull apart Tequila
Overlord and Lord Roth lyrics all day long, because for the most part, none
of them are going to change the world or say anything too overly important.
But, you would probably be the one to critique "Knockin' on Heaven's Door",
"State Trooper", "Atlantic City", or "Rainy Day Women". Or "Tunnel of Love"
for that matter with is trite, manufactured imagery about sex through the
wording and choice of title. I could only imagine what you'd do to Elvis
Presley song lyrics!
If you like rock and roll, and I mean really like rock and roll, you'll have
a hard time finding too many lyricists who actually write songs that matter
anymore. Some of the greatest songs in rock are pretty lame
lyrically..."Wild Thing", et. al. For every social statement song you get
1,000 songs about someone trying to get into someone else's pants. Which I
think is 3/4's of Liz Phair's records...Outkast records...Jet's record...The
Darkness' record. Make no mistake, it's only rock and roll.
Both the Tequila Overlord and Lord Roth have written songs, primarily about
sex. On occasion each would 'dabble' in some social arena "Meanstreet",
"Right Now". But for the most part,
"just sit back and ease the seat back", and let your woman put some "cream
in your coffee", "cause you got it bad, got it bad". Sounds like you need
more than cream in your coffee.
In 20-30 years, music historians will laugh at both VH eras heartily. Both
about the platinum blond, balding fellow with the inflatable microphone
between his legs and parade of midgets, and the guy who sang "Amsterdam".

Love starts falling down

Hey which one of you was ripping Hagar's line about putting cream in his
coffee? Check out this Asless Pants gem...
"My stomch's makin' noise
We're having dinner late
Cuz I gotta be kept
In a cool dry place
Just like any bowl of cherries
When the cream is risin' to the top."
I gotta admit though... this line is great

You don't get it. When Dave does it, it's great. When Sammy does it, it's
horrible. What don't you understand? We've only been spewing this for years
now.

If the author of the lyrics was Roth you would be praising it.

Would you like a rundown of Roth's words of wisdom? He has some
pretty sad ones as well. It just proves that Eddie's playing is the
heart of this band.

I have always thought that since Roth put out his solo albums with Steve Vai
Eddie has been trying to cop Vai's thin raspy tone.

If the lyrics suck, they suck. I don't give a shit who writes 'em. You
will notice I rarely if ever rag on Hagar's voice which is in remarkably
good shape considering the miles he's put on 'em.

you know it's a thin argument at best, you see Lord Roth has never made any
claims to be "mature" with his lyrics. He's always professed to write good
time lyrics that in some case don't really make much sense.
He just kicks Hagar's ass cause Lord Roth's lyrics are way more clever and
witty than Hagar could ever dream of writing. At least Roth's cheesy bad
lyrics stay away from stale old clichés such as "she puts the cream in my
coffee"

Thank you TB. Why is it the only to defend crap Hagar lyrics is to try and
deflect it onto Roth? Sad really.

"I know, I know, I figured fuck it."
"Steak and potato; a feather in a bucket."
Pretty cheesy... although I think CGTSNM is a good tune.

why? so we can read what pompus, know it all, Bruce/Dylan fans think... the
meaning of his lyrics. what a load of crap. you've missed the point
completly it's not about content or meaning, it's about the style and
pizzaz of these lyrics.
The argument here is that Sammy is trying to write Roth stlye lyrics, at
least to IAT and UFB, and he fails miseralby at it. He and Eddie spout off
about how Roth was so " imature" with his lyrics and then they trun around
and try to do what he{Roth} is so good at. Roth lyrics are nonsensical
jibberish that talk about a good time getting pussy and gettin drunk, but
there delivered with funk and attitude,Hell, I belive in a recent interveiw
he said Push comes to shove was about his parrot he had at the time . Sammy
writes vanilla lyrics and delivers them in the same no nonsense manner he
alwys has..... boring
