1979 (live 1996) Full Lyrics
[00:11.69] Shakedown, 1979
[00:18.20] Cool kids never have the time
[00:25.74] On a live wire right up off the street
[00:31.21] You and I should meet
[00:37.66] June bug skipping like a stone
[00:44.40] With the headlights pointed at the dawn
[00:52.87] We were sure we'd never see an end to it all
[01:00.09] And I don't even care to shake these zipper blues
[01:09.64] And we don't know just where our bones will rest
[01:16.80] To dust, I guess forgotten and absorbed to the Earth below
[01:38.01] Double-cross the vacant and the bored
[01:45.10] They're not sure just what we have in store
[01:52.71] Morphine city slippin' dues down to see
[01:59.52] That we don't even care as restless as we are
[02:09.10] We feel the pull in the land of a thousand guilts
[02:16.34] And poured cement
[02:21.05] Lamented and assured
[02:24.21] To the lights and towns below
[02:30.43] Faster than the speed of sound
[02:37.92] Faster than we thought we'd go
[02:45.55] Beneath the sound of hope
[02:54.02] Justine never knew the rules
[03:00.96] Hung down with the freaks and the ghouls
[03:08.50] No apologies ever need be made
[03:16.50] I know you better than you fake it to see
[03:23.05] That we don't even care to shake these zipper blues
[03:32.99] And we don't know just where our bones will rest
[03:40.10] To dust, I guess forgotten and absorbed to the Earth below
[03:53.86] The street heats the urgency of now
[04:01.04] As you see there's no one around
[04:05.74]
