1979

Shakedown 1979
 The cool kids never have the time
 On a live wire right up off the street
 You and I should meet
 Junebug skippin' 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
 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
