And I don't even care to shake these zipper blues
And I don't even care to shake these zipper blues
And poured cement, lamented and assured
And poured cement, lamented and assured
And we don't know just where our bones will rest
And we don't know just where our bones will rest
And we don't know just where our bones will rest
And we don't know just where our bones will rest
And we don't know just where our bones will rest
As you see there's no one around
Beneath the sound of hope
Cool kids never have the time
Cool kids never have the time
Double cross the vacant and the bored
Double cross the vacant and the bored
Faster than the speed of sound
Faster than the speed of sound
Faster than we thought we'd go
Faster than we thought we'd go
Hung down with the freaks and the ghouls
I know you better than you fake it to see
I know you better than you fake it to see
Justine never knew the rules
Justine never knew the rules
Morphine city slippin' dues down to see
Morphine city slippin' dues down to see
No apologies ever need be made
No apologies ever need be made
On a live wire right up off the street
Shakedown 1979
Shakedown 1979
That we don't even care as restless as we are
That we don't even care to shake these zipper blues
That we don't even care to shake these zipper blues
The street heats the urgency of now
They're not sure just what we have in store
They're not sure just what we have in store
To dust, I guess; forgotten and absorbed
To dust, I guess; forgotten and absorbed
To dust, I guess; forgotten and absorbed
To dust, I guess; forgotten and absorbed
To the earth below
To the earth below
To the earth below
To the lights and towns below
To the lights and towns below
We feel the pull in the land of a thousand guilts
We feel the pull in the land of a thousand guilts
We were sure we'd never see an end to it all
With the headlights pointed at the dawn
With the headlights pointed at the dawn
You and I should meet
You and I should meet
