Paid in Cocaine

歌詞

Crusty boots in the corner of the closet by the tackle box Once proud shining silver buckles safe behind the normalcy locks Baubles and bangles A lost age Still all aglow with the radiance of the stage That's who I was (that's who I was) This is who I am (this is who I am) Work to pay down the interest on the mortgage Use to get paid by the gram Long Beach Long Beach can you hear me? Can you hear me Long Beach? Long Beach Long Beach can you hear me? Can you hear me Long Beach? Master tape from the show we did at Fender's back in '85 Dark paisley from Retail Slut All four of us still fresh and alive Flashes and phosphenes It's hard to believe that's me Strapped in and visibly sweating As happy as I'm ever gonna be You're still by my side (you're still by my side) Five years left on your collar (five years on your collar) You're cashing out All dressed up For your date with the emergency ward Long Beach Long Beach can you hear me? Can you hear me Long Beach? Long Beach Long Beach can you hear me? Can you hear me Long Beach?
