On The Strip

Sonic Youth

[Kim]

every time you look my way

you shine a light in what you say

every time you look my way

you talk a rhyme called purple haze

close your eyes and pretend

you're not at all a black friend

a smileless girl on the strip

you really learn just how to be hip

tell yr stories 'bout your crazy trip

messing with stars and doing tricks

close your eyes and pretend

it started all back then

big glass house on the hill

doing dope but did you swear

yesterday was buried last year

while I don't care I thought was clear

close your eyes and pretend

this is how it should end

cinderella of the night

doesn't know her left from right

she so hungry for a bite

forget your friends for a big night

don't you know who's keeping score

who's that barking at your door

hold tight with fear, a little bit

hold tight with fear, a little bit

hold tight with fear, a little bit

hold tight with fear

that was then, this is now

hold tight with fear, a little bit

hold tight with fear, a little bit

hold tight with fear, a little bit

hold tight with fear

that was then, this is now

every time you look my way

remember a girl who used to say

hold me tight any way

it's okay it's only play

I will remember in my dawn

what I came for, for a lark
