I stayed up late listening to the Ronettes
Thinking about teenage nights and car headlights
And the heaviest of passionate breaths
It's all tumbling down, I think we're coming around
We got the greatest moments of our lives
Recorded in stereo sound


Leaves in fall and buildings tall
A million people at night looking up at the sky
Like a big blank wall
A booming hive on Lake Shore Drive
All the bugs crawl along with the radio on
And they're just keeping the queen alive

My heart sinks at the sunrise
My hands are moving clockwise
It's hard to explain the phenomenal pain
It's reflected in your eyes
I wanna be one of the good guys

Gimme a call when your car's just over the state line
And the moon's so important you can see it in the daytime
I'll give you my heart when the Beat Beat Beating is stable
And the world unfolds like a map on a table
Blazing flames and Biblical names
Little kids on the lawn with their sunglasses on
And the answers always come out the same
You waste your time and you kill your mind
But the world looks best with Harpoons in your chest
And staggering across the assembly line

My heart's filled with guitar notes
My mind is covered in bar codes
It's tough to describe the phenomenal vibe
We're just going to rock shows
Can't figure it out. Only the moon knows
