1979

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 pointed at the dawn
We were sure we'd never see an end to it all
I don't even care
To shake these zipper blues
We don't know just where our bones will rest
To dust I guess
Forgotten and absorbed into the earth below
Double crossed, vacant and a bore
They're not sure just what we have in store
Morphine city slipping dues
Time to see
That we don't even care
As restless as we are
We feel the uproar in the land of a thousand views
Of porcelain men
Lamented and assured to the lights and the towns below
Foster land, speed of sound
Foster land, thought we'd gone
Beneath the sound of home
Justine never knew the rules
Hunted down with the freaks and ghouls
No apologies ever need to be made
I know you better than you're playing to see
That we don't even care
To shake these zipper blues
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 now
As you can see there's no one around
