The Smashing Pumpkins - 1979

June bug skipping like a stone

That we don't even care to shake these zipper blues

I know you better than you fake it to see

Beneath the sound of hope

Justine never knew the rules

Hung down with the freaks and the ghouls

And poured cement, lamented and assured

With the headlights pointed at the dawn

To the earth below

Shakedown 1979

And I don't even care to shake these zipper blues

Faster than the speed of sound

Cool kids never have the time

You and I should meet

We were sure we'd never see an end to it all

To dust, I guess; forgotten and absorbed

Double cross the vacant and the bored

They're not sure just what we have in store

We feel the pull in the land of a thousand guilts

To the lights and towns below

Faster than we thought we'd go

No apologies ever need be made

And we don't know just where our bones will rest

To dust, I guess; forgotten and absorbed

The street heats the urgency of now
