On a live wire right up off the street
You and I should meet

And I don’t even care to shake these zipper blues

Morphine city slippin dues down to see

Hung down with the freaks and the ghouls
No apologies (5)________ need be made
I (6)________ you better than you fake it, to see
And we don’t (7)________ care to shake these zipper blues
And we don’t know
Just where our bones will (8)________ to dust, I guess
Forgotten and absorbed into the earth below

The street heats the (9)______________ of sound
As you can see there's no one around
