I guess lawyers, guns and money will only take you so far. Sorry I had to find out this way.

I'm partial to "Werewolves of London". He was an interesting guy.

Thank you all for the nice comments. Servo, to be honest, "Werewolves of London" is my favourite Zevon song, but I still think "Accidentally Like a Martyr" was his best, lyrically speaking, if that makes any sense. The complete lyrics are below, for those who are interested (and even for those who aren't). Accidentally Like A Martyr By Warren Zevon c. 1978 Zevon Music/BMI The phone don't ring And the sun refused to shine Never thought I'd have to pay so dearly For what was already mine For such a long, long time We made mad love Shadow love Random love And abandoned love Accidentally like a martyr The hurt gets worse and the heart gets harder The days slide by Should have done, should have done, we all sigh Never thought I'd ever be so lonely After such a long, long time Time out of mind We made mad love Shadow love Random love And abandoned love Accidentally like a martyr The hurt gets worse and the heart gets harder
