      Lyrics

      Shakedown 1979
      Cool kids never have the time
      On a live wire
      Right up off the street
      You and I should meet
      Junebug skipping like a stone
      With 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
      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
      Morphine city slippin’ dues
      Down to see
      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
      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
      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 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
      Into the earth below
      The street heats the urgency of now (written: sound)
      As you can see there’s no one around

      Additional Info: "Started as an album song until the very last moment, when Mellon Collies was cut from 31 to 28 songs, this is an interesting interpretation of what had essentially been an acoustic song. Flood and I tried about four different versions before settling on this one [see Queen's Hot Space album]. One version that I liked was just me and a distorted guitar. But in the end this version won, only to be mixed into eternal obscurity as a B-side." -BC (Guitar World 1/97)

      Lyrics

      I don’t look in the mirror

      I don’t like what I see staring back at me

      Everything is clearer

      I’ll never see what you see

      It’s not me

      So beautiful and free

      I’ll never be what you need

      I can’t help it at all

      I was born so beautiful

      But now I’m ugly

      And I rot in my skin

      As a piece of me dies everyday

      I know I’m nothing

      I know there’s nothing I can say

      To change

      The judgement in their ways

      I’ll never be what you need

      I can’t help it at all

      My love was so beautiful

      But now I’m ugly

      Yeah…

      I’m good enough, but I don’t care

      I’m good enough, but I’m not there

      I’m good enough, but I don’t care

      The sun is out, but I’m not there

      (I can go anywhere) I’m good enough, but I don’t care (…somewhere)

      (I can go anywhere) The sun is out, but I’m not there (…somewhere)

      (I can go anywhere) I’m good enough (…somewhere)

      (I can go anywhere) I’m good enough (…somewhere)

      I don’t look in the mirror

      I don’t like what I see staring back at me

      Everything is clearer

      I’ll never see what you see

      And I rot in my skin

      As a piece of me dies everyday

      I know I’m nothing

      Because I’m ugly

      Lyrics

      Close your eyes
      Until the sunlight dies
      In your head a thousand stars
      Through the darkness you can see a light
      And if they steal your life
      Your heart is still mine
      I want to believe in you and I heard you
      Your song, you sing, a truth, there’s no other
      I want to believe in you, dear
      On Sunday…
      There’s a life I hide
      Well I tried to disguise
      And I can take you a million miles away
      I want to believe in you and I heard you
      Your song, you sing, a truth, there’s no other
      I want to believe in you, dear
      On Sunday I made amends
      For all my mistakes
      May God speed be with you
      Oooh…oooh…oooh…oooh
      And I…
      I want to believe in you and I heard you
      Your song, you sing a truth, there’s no other
      I want to believe in you and I heard you
      Your song, you sing a truth, there’s no other
      I want to believe in you and I heard you
      Your song, (soft) you sing, a truth, a lover
      I want to believe in you and I heard you
      Your song, you sing a truth, there’s no other
      I want to believe in you, dear
      Sunday
      Sunday
      I want to make amends
      For all my mistakes
      May God speed be with you

      Lyrics

      (Listen- Wanna just start it?…Ready, Flood?
      Yeah……1,2,3,4)
      Stay with me, I’ll set you free
      ‘Cause I can tell you once were pretty
      Rose so sad you’ve lost your petals
      Lost the luster off your tattle tales
      I need a love to help me find my way
      I need a strength that I can not betray
      I need a word to say what I can’t say
      I need a lover, lover
      I need a lover, lover
      What are we waiting for?
      What are we waiting for?
      Time has lost its hold on me
      Hatred sleeps inside my bones
      In the stillness of cool air
      All the boys have been left for dead
      ‘Cause we go where they fear to tread
      The beautiful one’s the one’s we’ll remember
      The precious one’s our greatest pretenders
      I need a love to help me find my way
      I need a strength that I cannot betray
      I need a word to say what I can’t say
      I need a lover, lover
      I need a lover, lover
      And if you lose yourself
      Could you take me, too?
      Could you rest inside the sleep?
      Stay with me, I’ll set you free from you…..
      Stay with me, I’ll set you free from you…..
      Stay with me, I’ll set you free from you…..
      Stay with me, I’ll set you free from you…..
      I need a love…..
