What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Somebody screamed
2
All of Jim Jeffries' dreams
3
Explode into a black fist
4
He falls to the floor
5
He stares up at the sky
6
And he may wish he knew why
7
But you can't go back there no more
8
The future sounds so crazy
9
We all heard that song before
10
Tomorrow's the name we changed from yesterday to blame
11
When the train just don't stop here any more
12
I got starry-eyed
13
On the coaster ride
14
Andy said, "Man, I need a break from the world outside"
15
These days my life just careens
16
Through a pinball machine
17
I could do so much better
18
But I can't get off the tilt
19
And there's a photograph on the TV, black and white
20
Andy says something to you
21
Jack Johnson straddling Reno, Nevada like
22
Sheesh, I forget myself sometimes, too
23
But out past the doorways
24
Where we are sleeping
25
Well, the white queen's creeping
26
The tom cat's peeping
27
Now I'm not breaking
28
The train's just shaking
29
I never made it here before
30
And there's a wild mouse spinning the girls around
31
Til they can't take it any more
32
I used to dream in the dark, in Palisades Park
33
Up over the cliffs and down among the spark
34
It's a long life
35
Full of long nights
36
But it's not what I was waiting for
37
Everybody's seen the horses diving down the shore
38
It's a miracle they don't make them any more
39
So
40
Make up ladies
41
Wake up baby
42
You walked into the bar like some Saturday star
43
Stud-straight on spiked heels and needles and nerves
44
And you're a downtown pride, fully amplified Clyde
45
Gin-tight and aging, but well preserved
46
Remember Andy outside your bedroom window
47
Saying, "Come on, let's drive across to the Palisades
48
Keep going til we hit Reno, Nevada"
49
I don't see Andy all that much these days
50
Still there are pages in back of the action stacks
51
Where the white queen's creeping
52
The tom cat's peeping
53
The train's not breaking
54
The track's just shaking
55
I never made it here before
56
And there's a sky rocket turning the world around
57
Til I can't take it any more
58
And you carry that spark from Palisades Park
59
Down over the cliffs and out into the dark
60
It's a long life
61
Full of long nights
62
But it's not what I was looking for
63
Everybody dreams of horses flying 'round the shore
64
It's a bad dream we're not having any more
65
Man
66
Have you seen Andy?
67
Hey man, hey man
68
Seen him around...
69
Hey man, have you seen my Andy?
70
Hey man, have you seen him have you seen her have you seen him have you seen her
71
Hey, have you seen Andy around?
72
Dressed up in a pirate vest
73
All leathers and feathers and pearls
74
Andy said, "Look at me, man! I'm cooking
75
These hands could finger up this whole world"
76
He said, "Come outside
77
Climb out your bedroom window
78
Shimmy down the fire escape
79
And say goodbye"
80
"Come outside..."
81
Andy says, "I'm dressed up just like Edie
82
Changing all the time
83
My leopard spots to polka dots"
84
"...And say goodbye"
85
"Come outside..."
86
Well maybe we can move to California
87
Just meet me at the subway
88
"...and say goodbye"
89
"Come outside..."
90
The cops all think we're crazy
91
If you stay, you'll just get married
92
To a girl who'll never know you
93
And then say goodbye
94
Hey man, have you seen Andy?
95
I lost her in the sun
96
I was high as a kite
97
But on lovely in white
98
Man, you can lose anyone
99
Hey hey man, have you seen Andy?
100
I don't know where she's gone
101
Real love outlives teenage lust
102
We could get wet and it keeps us warm
103
Love is like angel dust
104
Lovely sometimes changes us
105
Sometimes not
106
Have you been aching with trust or just
107
Have you been waking yourself with lust?
108
Have you been making us up or just
109
Taking us home?
110
It's a long wait
111
At a long light
112
Cars frozen in flight
113
All the traffic stops to stare
114
At a crosswalk in Reno, Nevada
115
Where nothing but air
116
And a pair of gray paper wings
117
Andy thinks that I have got nothing to wear
118
We got nothing new and
119
We got nothing to wear
120
We got nothing to wear
121
We got nothing to wear
