Shakedown 1979,cool kids never have the time
On a live wire right up off the street
You and I should meet
Junebug skipping like a stone
With the headlights pionted at the dawn
We sure we'd never seen an end to it all
And we don't even care to shake these zipper blues
And we don't know
Just where our bones will rest
To dust I guess
Forgotten and absorbed to the earth below
Double cross the vacant and the bored
They're not sure just what we have in store
Morphine city slippin dues down to see
That we don't even care as restless as we are
We feel the pull in the land of a thousand guilts
And poured cement, lamented and assured
To the lights on the towns below
Faster then the speed of sound
Faster then we thought we'd go,beneath the sound of hope
Justine never knew the rules
Hung down with the freaks and ghouls
No apologies ever need be made,I know you better then you fake it
To see that we don't care, to shake these zipper blues
And we don't know just where our bones will rest
To dust I guess
Forgotten and absorbed into the earth below
The street heats the urgency of sound
As you see there's no one around |
