Muscle Cars

You’ve been singing on my tape
Sleeping under lock and key
Kissing on the fire escape
Rock of ages cleft for me
And the room is picking up my cues
It spins and waits to see
If you’ll talk talk talk talk to me
It’s okay pull me under all the way
On the other side of town
You’re sleeping through the fire alarms
I could watch this city drown
From your everlasting arms
We could row against the undertow
There’s nothing here to see
Til you talk talk talk talk to me
It’s okay pull me under all the way
The sky is falling everywhere
But you don’t have to be afraid
It’s just bombs bursting in mid air
For the Independence Day Parade
And the stars faster than muscle cars
Are racing here to see
If you’ll talk talk talk talk to me
It’s okay pull me under all the way
