1979 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 the 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 the ghouls
    no apologies ever need be made, i know you better than you fake it
    to see that we don't 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 sound
    as you can see there's no one around
