Iggy told NPR,
[James Williamson] sent me a very pretty piece of dobro music, solo, that began and ended with him playing the motif to “I Wanna Be Your Dog” on slide guitar. He called it “Ron’s Tune” [in honor of the late Ron Asheton, who played guitar in “I Wanna Be Your Dog”]. I rewrote the lyric...
The Departed Lyrics
Where is the life we started?
Yesterday's a door opening for the departed
The life of the party's gone
The guests are still remained
Know they'll stay a little longer
Party girls will soon get old
Party boys will lie them
Both the sexes soon grow cold
And tears caught to their eyes
Serious talks, no fun
And when the lights go out
You feel like you wanna run
Cause there's no one here but us
By the end of the game we all get thrown under the bus
I can't feel nothing real
My lights are all burned out
I can't feel nothing real
What is the point of friendship?
It's nobody's fault, but this nightlife is just a death trip
You think you're getting hot steel
But in the light of day everything's a dirty deal
And yesterday's a door that's opening for the departed
Yesterday's a door that's opening for the departed
So where is the life we started?
Where is the life we started?
