Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's already yesterday
We're off the calendar
I heard the sirens play just like an orchestra
Mechanical bird of prey, sing for your emperor
Last broken flash of love still in the camera
[Verse 2]
We don't feel those locks and chains
We won't listen to the lizard part of our brains
Givin' the orders
Another mornin', we'll be gone
I start the car for Ten Mile Beach
And maybe Avalon, across the water
[Verse 3]
It's already yesterday
And nobody's answerin'
Disconnected, drift away
Nobody's questionin'
Head silver
Feet of clay
Who is surrenderin'?
They fall in our heyday
I am rememberin'
[Verse 4]
We don't feel those locks and chains
We won't listen to the lizard part of our brains
Givin' the orders
Another mornin', we'll be gone
I start the car for Ten Mile Beach
And maybe Avalon, across the water
[Verse 5]
We can't feel those aches and pains
We won't listen to voices in the city rain
Givin' the orders
Another mornin', I'll be gone
I start the car for violet town
Then to Babylon, over the border
[Verse 6]
Another mornin', we'll be gone
I start the car for ten mile beach
And maybe Avalon, across the water
We don't feel those locks and chains
We won't listen to the lizard part of our brains
Givin' the orders
[Verse 7]
Another mornin', we'll be gone
I start
