Proud Simon — One Night Stand on a Cadmium Yellow Avenue lyrics

Lyrics

We tore the books off of the shelves, we can’t keep to ourselves
Burst like roman candles into a night of criminals!
The butcher shop wore a coat of arms, we drove like cocaine in that car
To an oracle standing in the wake of a rising sea change
She said, «Wishes to wine could take some time.»
So tonight we’re drinking moonshine
On bullet trains without our names, they’ll never matter anyway
The skyscrapers are looking the other way
We climbed a mile high of cement to a warehouse world, the bleeding reds
Against the chalk white filament shone apparitions in the bed
On South 3rd there’s fireworks. the phantom rider’s wings unfurled
Setting fire to an unsuspecting world, oh no!
