1979 - Remastered 2012 Lyrics
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
To 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
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 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
To the earth below
The street heats the urgency of now
As you see there`s no one around
