lyrics

Hey honey wake up something’s going on outside
I’ve been aching for a shake-up; it’s a neon Friday night
I called the number it’s the same stuff as before
It’s the first weekend of summer and tonight won’t wait no more
The starlight is confetti on the street
There’s music playing out there where the sand and city meet
Down here there’s static on the dial
Are we still running or just running out of time?
I know nothing lasts forever but forever starts tonight
Well okay
Hey alright
I caught the newsflash there’s a riot in the slums
You say wait until tomorrow but tomorrow never comes
TV’s a blizzard, channels tripping off the air
All the satellites are crashing down just off the coast somewhere
And all the restless spirits stalk the night
Just bleeding from their fingertips or itching for a fight
Down here there’s static on the dial
Are we still running or just running out of time?
I know nothing lasts forever but forever starts tonight
Well okay
Hey alright
Burn the discothèques
Torch the multiplex
Let the fires twist and rage
Oh let your flesh turn like a flame
It’s that time again
Yeah it’s that time again
Time to break the chains, erase the stains
Now we are born again
