Letra da Música 1979 The Smashing Pumpkins

Shakedown 1979
Cool kids never have the time
On a live wire right up off the street
You and I should meetJunebug skipping like a stone
With the headlights pointed at the dawn
We were sure we'd never see an end to it allAnd 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 belowDouble cross the vacant and the bored
They're not sure just what we have in the store
Morphine city slippin' dues, down to seeThat 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 assuredTo the lights and towns below
Faster than the speed of sound
Faster than we thought we'd go
Beneath the sound of hopeJustine 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 seeThat 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
Into the earth belowThe street heats the urgency of now
As you see there's no one around
