1979

In the style of

The Smashing Pumpkins

Lyrics

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
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
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
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
