Not the Weezer song.
Written in July 1987, this is song #83. This was written while Welcome Mat was still around, but I'm not sure this one ever made it to rehearsals. It was probably too refined for that version of the band, anyway. We probably would have beaten it to death.
This is the only song I wrote that came from a dream. In Case Of Jerome (a favorite of ours during that era) was playing it and I just had to get it down on paper before they stole it.
This one was written on my little Casio, which still exists and makes an appearance here. I had to play the part since I wrote it. it's all one-touch keyboard, so don't go thinking I have skillz. If you look at the lyric sheet below, you'll see the switch settings in the upper left-hand corner.
I'm glad we got this out to the world before Beverly Sills croaks. (She's 76.) Necrophilia is not cool, man.
I'm gonna move out to Beverly Hills
I don't care what anybody thinks
I'm gonna say I know Beverly Sills
Then everybody will buy me drinks
Buy me beer, buy me wine
But I'd rather have water
When they ask how I know her
I'll say I'm her daughter
They will ask where's my dress
And make me sing an aria
But that would only impress
I don't want to go that far
(eee-yaaa)
I'm gonna move out to Beverly Hills
I don't care what anybody thinks
I'm gonna marry Beverly Sills
My mom says that the whole thing stinks
When on Rodeo Drive
I'll do as the natives
The apples fall from the trees
But only if you shake them
I'll get down on one knee
And give Bev a ring
I can only hope
That she doesn't ask me to sing
(eee-yaaa)
