Verse 1:
Shakedown nineteen seven nine,
Cool kids never have the time.
On a live wire right up off the street
You and I should meet.
Verse 2:
Junebug skipping like a stone
With headlights pointed at the dawn.
We were sure we'd never see
An end to it all.
Chorus 1:
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.
Verse 3:
Double cross the vacant and the bored,
They're not sure just what we have in store.
Morphine city slippin' dues down to see:
Chorus 2:
That we don't even care as restless as we are,
We feel the pull in the land of a tousand guilts.
And poured cement,
Lamented and assured.
Bridge:
To the lights and town below,
Faster than the speed of sound,
Faster than we thought we'd go beneath the sound of hope.
Verse 4:
Justine never knew the rules,
Hung down with the freaks and ghouls.
No apologies ever need be made,
I know better than you fake it to see:
Chorus 3:
That we don't even care to shake these zipper blues,
And we don't know just where out bones will rest
To dust I guess,
Forgotten and absorbed into the earth below.
Coda:
The street heats the urgency of now.
As you see there's no-one around.
