Palisades Park
Your rating:
Somebody’s screaming on Jim Jeffrie's dreams Exploding to a black fist and falls to the floor He stares up at the sky and he may wish he knew why But you can't go back there, no more The future sounds so crazy, we all heard that song before Tomorrow's a name that changed from yesterday to blame When that train just don't stop here anymore I got starry eye on a coaster ride Andy said: Man I need a break from the world outside And these days my life just carens through a pinball machine I could do so much better but I can't get off the tilt There's a photograph on a TV, black and white and Andy says something to you Jack Johnson straddling on Nevada like She says I forget myself sometimes too But out past the doorways where we are sleeping Well the white queen's creeping and the time cat's beeping And now I'm not breaking, the train's just shaking I never made it here before And there's a wide mouth spinning the girls around ‘Till they can't take it any more I used to dream in the dark in Palisades park Up all over the cliffs and down among the spark It's a long life full of long nights But it's not what I was waiting for Everybody's seen the horses driving down the shore It's a miracle they don't make them anymore So make up ladies, wake up baby You walked into the bar like some Saturday star Just get straight on spiked heels and needles and nerves And you're a downtown pride, fully amplified clyde Gintied of Asian but well preserved Remember Annie outside your bedroom window Saying: Come on, let's drive across to the Palisades Keep going ‘till we hit Reno, Nevada I don't see all that much these days Still there are pages in black of the action stacks Where the white queen's creeping and the time cat's beeping And the train's not breaking, the track's just shaking I’ve never made it here before And there's a sky rocket turning the world around But still I can't take it anymore And if you carry that spark from Palisades Park Down over the cliffs and out all in the dark It's a long life full of long nights But it's not what I was looking for Everyone dreams of horses flying round the shore It's a bad dream, we're not having anymore Man, have you seen Andy? Hey man, hey man, have you seen him around? Hey man, have you seen my, my, my, my, my Andy? Hey man, have you seen him, have you seen him Hey have you seen him, have you seen him? Hey, have you seen Andy around? Dressed up in a pirate vest, All leathers and feathers and pearls Andy said: Look at me man I'm cooking these hands are but figure up this whole world He said: Come outside, climb out your bedroom window Shimmy down the fire escape and say goodbye Come outside, Andy says: I'm dressed up just like Edy Changing all the time, my leopard spots two polka dots and say goodbye Come outside well, maybe we can move to California Just meet me at the subway and say goodbye Come outside, the cops are think we're crazy If you steal, you'll just get married To a girl who'll never know you and you’ll say goodbye Hey man, have you seen my Andy? I lost her in the cirque I was high as kite on a lovely and white man You can lose anyone Hey, hey man, have you seen Andy I don't know where she's gone But real love outlives teenage lost Oh, and you’ll get wet and it keeps us warm Love is like angel dust Lovely sometimes changes us Sometimes we're not Have you been aching the trust or just Have you been waking yourself with lost? Have you been making us up or just taking us home It's a long wait and a long life Cars frozen on flight All the traffic stops and stare On the crosswalk in Reno, Nevada Where nothing but air and a pair of gray paper wings Andy say: Man, I’ve got nothing to wear We got nothing to wear, we got nothing to wear We got nothing to wear, we got nothing to wear
