Lyrics
That's Why I'm Here...Saw your new boyfriend at the laundromatdown on Pico just the other day. Asked him how he got his shirts so white. You know, he didn't have too much to say. Now I'm not saying he's no good for you, but I've got to wonder about a man like that. Maybe it's just the way he combs his hair. Maybe it's just the way he wears his hat. Sure he can take you to the Polo Lounge and he can tell you things you want to hear. But he won't love you, girl, the way I would. And that's why I'm here. I watched him slink into his foreign car with satellite this and satellite that. And I was thinking as he drove away. You know, he kinda looks like Yassar Arafat. Sure he can take you to those Hollywood parties and wine and dine you every night of the year. But he won't love you, girl, the way I would. And that's why I'm here. That's why I'm here--to save you from a heart ache. That's why I'm here--you know, I'm only looking out for you. That's why I'm here--to save you from a mistake. That's why I'm here--seems like the very least that I can do. Check out that Rolex hanging on his arm. You know it's fake because it doesn't sweep. Why don't you meet me at Chateau Marmont. I've got some photos you just have to see. Sure he can take you out to Malibu and he can buy you things that you hold dear. But he won't love you, girl, the way I would. And that's why I'm here. No, he won't love you, girl, the way I would. And that's why I'm here.
