Meanwhile down at the Whistle Stop Cafe A friend of mine was shot today. But that's OK. I've seen him die, every fuckin' day. And just a half a block from the liquor store another gunned down for just five dollars more. Who's keeping score? It's just another punk killed by flower power. Selling blood and bummin' change. Haight Street. Telegraph Avenue. Ain't nothin' goin' on today. Just a Beat Generation fantasy. You holding man? Have you got the KGB? No fuckin' way! I'm just happy to be. You and me, in this liberal hippy virtual reality. Come down to the Bay and party with me. Four Twenty! Can't you see? There'll never be peace and love and Harmony for you and me, or anyone else, baby!

Deep one night in the Austin heat Lying dead at the end of the stage The singer struck down Struck down in the search for that true perfect beat (yeah) A circle of moths A million dead snails A bag full of toads and my head in a pail Searching for that rhythm of true pain Searching for that sound The sound! The sound!! The sound the sound the sound the sound!!! Schwinn bike on a road to danger Cards in my spokes and glitter on my handles I've seen your face before You're the one who always locks your keys in your car! Last Fall at the Electric Lounge When we found that true perfect sound With Rob and Lou and your whole damn crew And 20 more people that nobody knew We tore that whole fucking place down!
