[00:27.52]they used to think it was so cute
[00:29.96]when she said "dyer maker"
[00:31.27]all the boys knew it was a joke about jamaica
[00:34.68]she’d always find a ride back home from the bar
[00:38.98]
[00:40.09]she used to feel so stupid
[00:42.84]when they’d talk about the music
[00:44.65]born into every single tune
[00:47.68]they used to hum against her lips
[00:50.02]with their hands on her hips
[00:51.28]they used to kiss in the car
[00:53.65]
[00:54.81]dancing days, houses of the holy
[00:58.27]hot-shot in the city in the middle of the prairie
[01:01.38]floating with the boys, with all her charms
[01:07.90]at first the laugh, then the eyes
[01:10.21]then the touch-em-on-the-arm’s
[01:11.61]and the drinks, they’d never seem to cost money
[01:14.58]and saturday night was a runway
[01:17.78]that extended into sunday
[01:19.62]and sometimes monday
[01:22.54]
[01:23.70]back then it was beautiful
[01:26.96]the boys were sweet and musical
[01:29.86]the laser lights looked mystical
[01:33.35]messed up stuff felt magical
[01:36.98]girls didn’t seem so difficult
[01:40.24]boys didn’t seem so typical
[01:43.35]it was warm and white and wonderful
[01:46.76]we were all invincible
[01:50.55]
[02:01.20]tired eyes, trampled under foot
[02:05.45]dazed and confused
[02:07.23]c-c-c-c-cocaine blues
[02:08.99]she hasn’t got any eye contact tonight
[02:13.58]
[02:14.95]the boys are getting younger
[02:17.27]and the bands are getting louder
[02:18.94]and the new girls are coming up
[02:20.61]like some white unopened flowers
[02:22.21]she’s pretty sure that that’s where their power is
[02:27.80]
[02:28.72]back then it was unified
[02:33.90]the punks, the skins, the greaser guys
[02:36.91]then one summer, two kids died
[02:40.60]and one of them was crucified
[02:43.85]now it’s so competitive
[02:47.31]the sleeplessness and sedatives
[02:50.10]i know it sounds repetitive
[02:53.62]every show can’t be a benefit
[02:56.36]
[03:47.82]we were kids in the crowd
[03:49.85]now we’re dogs in this war
[03:51.56]we were wasps with new wings
[03:53.27]now we’re bugs in the jar
[03:54.85]we were hot, soft and pure
[03:56.54]now we’re scratched up in scars
[03:58.15]we were counting cards
[03:59.75]now we eat in our cars
[04:01.39]the boys in the band
[04:02.94]they know they’ll never be stars
[04:04.62]
[04:06.38]back then they were quite convinced
[04:10.04]firing and (?)
[04:13.21]the front row girls were posturing
[04:16.91]we were all imagining
[04:19.32]and man, we had some massive nights
[04:22.74]some bashes and some bloody fights
[04:26.10]back before those two kids died
[04:30.83]
