Girls of Summerland - NYCO

Let's just drive your car We can drive all day Let's just get the hell away from here For i am sick again Just plain sick to death Of the sound of my own voice We can leave behind Another wasted year Let's get some cheap red wine And just go flying We can do the things All the things you wanted to No one cares about us anyway I think i lost my smile I think you lost yours too We have lost the power To make each other laugh Let's just leave this place And go to summerland It's just a name on the map It sounds like heaven to me We can find a town Be just how we want to be No one here really cares about us anyway We can find a place Make it what we want to be No one really gives a fuck about us anyway We can live Live just how we want to live No one here really cares about us anyway We can be Everything we want to be We can get lost in the Fall, glimmer, sparkle, and fade The sparkle and fade Fall, glimmer, sparkle and fade Fall, glimmer, sparkle and fade Forget about our jobs At the record store Forget about all the Losers that we know Forget about all the Memories that keep you down Forget about them We can lose them in the Sparkle and fade Fade... The sparkle and fade Fall, glimmer, sparkle, and fade...

It was the rage of plastics, I was 24 I was doing my time on the dancefloor It was all polyester and leopard print And Fabergé coming off the ladies I know it's a blight to the brightest how our designs unseam Like the backside of some skirt in some old man's dream I got caught putting off all my traveling plans For this refinery job and his maybes With hair in ribbons, stockings in runs Fashion bricks out of the breaks as they come Land goes for less downwind of the plant There's no telling how long you'll be paying There are scores of us born in the silent spring Whose wombs won't take, won't bear anything He had want for a daughter, and I had want for a son Now I rock my moon faced man like one Was it the river on fire that made us what we became? Was it the cup that we drank from, or what it contained? Does it move to the beat of the oil drums Or flow out of our eyes as we're wailing? And I see it rise in ribbons to the clouds overhung Just to spit back down on everyone Land goes for less downwind of the plant There's no telling how long you'll be paying I have tried to be patient as I've been made nurse Get some help from the percs of my devotion's curse And I know, yeah, I know the man's pain is much worse For the moon and his grace are now waning You say the first one now will later be last My faith in scripture's come to pass Na I won't play dumb I'm done trying to sweeten this load And you give me a ribbon, you tell me to run To land my legs to your narcissus fund But land still goes for less downwind of the plant Making this living just brings about dying I got a rage of plastics, the refinery floor I got a rage of plastics, got nothing more Now I won't play dumb and I'm done lying Making this living just brings about dying But land still goes for less downwind of the plant Making this living just brings about dying Making this living just brings about dying Making this living just brings about dying
