Текст (слова) песни «1979 (iTunes Originals version)»

Shake down, 1979
Cool kids never have the time
On a live wire right up off the street
You and I should meet

June bugs skipping like a stone
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
When 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
Morphine city slipping dues, down to sea

But 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 home

Justine never knew the rules
Hung down with the freaks and ghouls
No apologies ever need be made
I know you better than you fake to see

And 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 sound
Can't you see there's no one around?
