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 to the dawn
We were sure we wouldn't see an end to it all
And I don't even care to shake this zipper blue
And we don't know just where our bones will
Rest in 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 slipping dues down to see
And we don't even care just 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
Faster than
The speed of sound
Faster than
We thought we'd go
Beneath the sound of hope
Justine never knew the rules
Hung out with the freaks and ghouls
No apologies ever need be made
I knew you better than you fake
Street heats the urgency of now
As you there's no one around
