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 wed 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 vacan't
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 wed
go beneath the sound of hope
justine never knew the rules
hung down with the freaks
and the ghouls
no apologies ever need be
made i know you better than
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 now
as you can see theres
no one around
