Sometimes it takes a while for radio (and the public) to figure out a group. This was the first release from a Boston group back in 1978. It peaked at #27, and the Cars went on to become one of The Top 100 Artists of the Rock Era*. Obviously, they recovered from the slight (the album has now gone over the six million mark), and the song is included on every "Best of the Cars" list you can find.
Lyrics and Music by Ric Ocasek
I don't mind you coming here
and wasting all my time
'cause when you're standing oh so near
I kinda lose my mind
It's not the perfume that you wear
It's not the ribbons in your hair
I don't mind you coming here
and wasting all my time
I don't mind you hanging out
and talking in your sleep
It doesn't matter where you've been
as long as it was deep
You always knew to wear it well
You look so fancy i can tell
I don't mind you hanging out
and talking in your sleep
I guess you're just what i needed
I needed someone to feed
I guess guess you're just what i needed
I needed someone to bleed
"Just What I Needed"
Cars
