Shakedown
nineteen seven nine
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
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 the 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 sound
As you see there's
no one around~
