Shakedown 1979 ♪ Cool kids never have the time On a live wire right up off the street You and I should meet ♪ June bug skipping like a stone
With the headlights pointed at the dawn
We were sure we'd never see an end to it all And I 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 Into 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 and towns below Faster than the speed of sound Faster than 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 than you fake it To see That 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 Into the earth below
The street heats the urgency of now As you see there's no one around
