Glory of the 80's |
I took a taxi from LA to Venus in 1985 |
I was electromagnetically sucked back |
into a party going on that night |
it was the glories of the 80's |
with karma drawn up in lines |
and two bugle boy models saying, «baby, |
it’s free-bee you sure look deprived» |
I had the «Story of O"in my bucket seat |
of my wanna be mustang |
auditioning for reptiles in their |
Raquel Welsh campaign |
in the glories of the 80's |
you said, «I'm not afraid to die» |
I said, I don’t find that remotely funny |
even on this space cake high |
and then it all seemed clear |
just then you go and disappear |
silicone party barbies to the left and |
Joan of Arcs to the right |
no one feeling insecure we were |
all gorge and famous in our last lives |
and the glories of the 80's you said |
«the end is nothing to fear"I said |
blow the end now baby |
who do I gotta shag to get outta here |
and then when it all seemed clear |
just then you go and disappear |
sure you’re out there orbiting around |
wish I had you back now |
I met a drag king called Venus |
she had a velvet hologram, she said |
«my husband ran off with my shaman |
but they love me as I am» |
in the glories of the 80's |
I may not have to die |
I’ll clone myself |
like that blonde chick |
that sings Betty Davis eyes |
and then when it all seemed clear |
just then you go and disappear |
