have mercy – 1979 lyrics
[verse 1]
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
[chorus 1]
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
[verse 2]
double+cross the vacant and the bored
they’re not sure just what we have in store
morphine city slippin’ dues down to see
[chorus 2]
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
[bridge]
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
[verse 3]
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
[chorus 3]
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
[outro]
the street heats the urgency of now
as you see there’s no one around
