One of the best breakup songs of all time. Meat is explaining to this broad that it doesn't matter if she cries all night, it won't change how he feels. He's given all that he has, and she's turned cold. By the end, he reveals that he too went through the same treatment long ago with his first love. You can't beat these lines...
"You'll never find your gold on a sandy beach
You'll never drill for oil on a city street
I know you're looking for a ruby in a mountain of rocks
But there ain't no Coup de Ville hiding at the bottom of
a Cracker Jack box."
"I want you.
I need you.
But there ain't no way I'm ever gonna love you.
Now don't be sad, cause two out of three ain't bad."
