I always wondered what 'That' was. Tonight on Radio 4's Front Row, Meatloaf explained (none too patiently) that 'That' was simply what he said in the previous verse eg 'I'll Never Lie To You And That's a Fact'.
Seems obvious now. Meatloaf mentioned he has a mug bearing the slogan "I See Dumb People'.

is one of my wife's bugbears, inherited from her dad. Someone just has to mention that they're not sure what 'that' is and she goes off one one, pointing out how 'that' is perfectly explained in the song, by both Mr Loaf and the object of his affections.
She's a bit scary sometimes...

Always wondered about Hall & Oates'
