  I LOVE THIS SONG!!

  It’s the perfect anthem of, and to, middle-agedness. And I’m bitter that someone else wrote it first.
  Favorite line: “When did Motley Crue become ‘Classic Rock’?”

  Makes me think fondly of the bustier I wore to my 10-year-reunion. Which was, in fact, snakeskin, as was only appropriate.

  “Come Back to Texas” was never a single, hence no video. the “outro” to their album, however, is them just dorking around with the “[insert name] wants you back” thing for a loooooooooong time, and stoned off their asses.

  I’m kind of ammused how these guys have become sort of the “Tame” disney band, and every song has a “Kid friendly” version specifically for Der Maus. For instance, the alternate version of this song has the lines “one workout a day/husband’s a CPA” and “She was gonna’ shake it fast” instead of “Shake her ass.” And don’t get me started on what they did to “Almost had you”

  You know you’re old when you no longer have any tour shirts. I find I’m down to just three…
