1979 (vocal mix) Full Lyrics
[00:27.17] Shakedown 1979
[00:30.79]
[00:34.85] Cool kids never have the time
[00:41.52] On a live wire right up off the street
[00:46.90] You and I should meet
[00:51.21]
[00:53.75] June bug skipping like a stone
[01:00.31] With the headlights pointed at the dawn
[01:06.60]
[01:08.97] We were sure we'd never see an end to it all
[01:14.31] And I don't even care to shake these zipper blues
[01:25.16] And we don't know just where our bones will rest
[01:32.68] To dust I guess forgotten and absorbed
[01:39.89] Into the earth below
[01:46.72]
[01:54.37] Double cross the vacant and the bored
[02:01.90] They're not sure just what we have in the store
[02:07.32]
[02:09.44] Morphine city slippin' dues down to see
[02:16.31] We don't even care as restless as we are
[02:25.61] We feel the pull in the land of a thousand guilts
[02:31.48] And poured cement, lamented and assured
[02:40.40] To the lights and towns below
[02:47.95] Faster than the speed of sound
[02:54.55] Faster than we thought we'd go
[03:01.65] Beneath the sound of hope
[03:42.25] Justine never knew the rules
[03:49.98] Hung down with the freaks and the ghouls
[03:55.12] No apologies ever need be made
[04:02.76]
[04:05.12] I know you better than you fake it to see
[04:11.73] That we don't even care to shake these zipper blues
[04:21.28] And we don't know just where our bones will rest
[04:28.83] To dust I guess forgotten and absorbed
[04:35.90] Into the earth below
[04:42.72] The street heats the urgency of now
[04:48.23]
[04:50.53] As you see there's no one around
[04:53.77]
