Dance Music |
| Alright, I’m on Johnson Avenue in San Luis Obispo |
| And I’m five years old, or six, maybe |
| And indications that there’s something wrong with our new house |
| Trip down the wire twice daily |
| I’m in the living room watching the Watergate hearings |
| While my stepfather yells at my mother |
| Launches a glass across the room, straight at her head |
| And I dash upstairs to take cover |
| Lean in close to my little record player on the floor |
| So this is what the volume knob’s for |
| I listen to dance music |
| Dance music |
| Okay, so look, I’m 17 years old |
| And you’re the last best thing I’ve got going |
| But then the special secret sickness starts to eat through you |
| What am I supposed to do? |
| No way of knowing |
| So I follow you down your twisting alleyways |
| Find a few cul-de-sacs of my own |
| There’s only one place this road ever ends up |
| And I don’t want to die alone |
| Let me down, let me down, let me down gently |
| When the police come to get me |
| I’m listening to dance music |
| Dance music |
