Thank you for this post.

Warren Zevon was a great artist. I miss him.

Thank you for your post. He was one of a kind. I'm really glad he survived his wild years. And as an aside, I loved his stints in the late '90s and early 2000's filling in for Paul Schaffer as band leader on Late Night with David Letterman. He was a perfect foil and a brightener for Dave, who had lapsed by then into his "grouchy" persona.

Well, I've seen all there is to see
And I've heard all they have to say
I've done everything I wanted to do
I've done that too
And it ain't that pretty at all
Ain't that pretty at all
So I'm gonna hurl myself against the wall
'Cause I'd rather feel bad than not feel anything at all


You know, I just had a short vacation, Roy
Spent it getting a root canal
Oh, how'd you like it?
Well, it ain't that pretty at all
No, it ain't that pretty at all
So I'm gonna hurl myself against the wall
'Cause I'd rather feel bad than not feel anything at all, yeah


Now I'm gonna get a good running start
And throw myself at the wall as hard as I can, man


I've been to Paris
And it ain't that pretty at all
I've been to Rome
Guess what?
I'd like to go back to Paris someday and go to the Louvre museum
Get a good running start and hurl myself at the wall
Gonna hurl myself against the wall
'Cause I'd rather feel bad than, yeah, feel nothing at all

And it ain't that pretty at all
And it ain't that pretty at all
And it ain't that pretty at all
Ain't that pretty at all
Ain't that, ain't that pretty at all
Well, ain't that pretty at all
