1979

Shakedown 1979
 Cool kids never have the time
 On a live wire right up off the street
 You and I should meet
 June bug skipping 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 the store
 Morphine city slippin' dues down to see
 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 the ghouls
 No apologies ever need be made
 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
