Shakedown 1979,
cool kids never have the time.

On a live wire right up off the street,
you and I should meet.
G

Junebug skipping like a stone,
G

with the headlights pointed at the dawn
G
Em A
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.

Morpine city slippin dues down to see.

That we don't even care as restless as
we are,
G

we feel the pull in the land of a thousand

to the lights and towns below, faster

Justine never knew the rules,

hung down with the freaks and the ghouls.

I know you better than you fake it, to
see

that we don't even care to shake these
zipper blues,

The street heats the urgency of sound,
G

as you can see there's no one around.
