Atom smashers in the cocktail lounge tonight
Op'ra singers in the graveyard keeping time
And the DJ mixes them all
And the music rhymes but it crawls

We were burnt by the sun
Havin' way too much fun
Headline gumball overload
Did the white light bring you down?
Does the daylight bring you down?

Money pours down and it drown the little man
Parking lot attendants fill their pockets with their hands
And the children laugh in your face
They can see what you have erased

The music comes from Hydrogen bombs
Rock bands died when amateurs won
Data in a hurry, oozing in the rubble
Wipe it up baby, gonna get yourself in trouble

We were burnt by the sun
Havin' way too much fun
The Church of Private Enterprise
Did the sunshine bring you down?

I love salt, I love sweets
I know there's danger but I fall asleep
The curves, the gasps, the love of life
Headline, gumbox, faceless paradise

Life rafts bobbin' at the bottom of the pier
Wood burns faster if it's soaked in gasoline
All these towns look the same, ev'rybody's clean
Roll 'em out, cheap and fast, kiss me when I fall

We were burnt by the sun
Havin' way too much fun
Downtown sleaze ball paradise
And I feel like going home

Alchohol
Take me now Razorblades
Holiday
All the clouds are miles/far away
Ev'ryone is far away
