James returns from a night out, half in the bag and looking to party, only to find his beloved half-asleep and fully annoyed. "Give It to Me Baby" is a song about Rick James' fundamental incompatibility with the non-Rick James lifestyle. To say the least, Rick James led a colorful life: a draft dodger, a failed pimp (too lenient, by his own admission), ex-bandmate of Neil Young and ex-lover of Princess Elizabeth of Yugoslavia, Rick picked up the cup of life and proceeded to spill it all over the carpet. We'll never see the thing Rick pocketed Dalí's sketch, got stoned, went for a swim, and ruined it. Dalí was supposedly so taken with Rick's appearance-he was one beautiful motherfucker back then-he insisted he draw him. Rick James met Salvador Dalí once, at a dinner party in Hawaii.
