Shotgun

Shotgun was slackin mojo

From the devil to the dime store down

I was a whisper there

Trippin like an east side hound

Down to nothing

Where cheap wine bleeds on lace

Catchin the cuff of the east side muff

Vanishing without a trace

Take it to the limit

Take it downtown

Rock it to the rhythm

Of the California sound

Take it to the limit

Take it downtown

Rock it to the rhythm

Of the California sound

Shotgun on a two lane strike

Set the pins up all in a row

Side to the left at a boy and his friend

Who strike a benevolent pose

Suburban skate boy punks

Jeer and poke as they cruise

Hang ten with the men that the cat dragged in

And the only yellow blossom that bloomed

Take it to the limit

Take it downtown

Rock it to the rhythm

Of the California sound

Take it to the limit

Take it downtown

Rock it to the rhythm

Of the California sound

Shotgun going one on one

Flippin like a vertical hold

Callous for the colors of the cartoon kids

Who never learn to do what they're told

It's never happy

It's never sane

Comin right down to the way that you found

A needle stickin into your vein

Take it to the limit

Take it downtown

Rock it to the rhythm

Of the California sound

Take it to the limit

Take it downtown

Rock it to the rhythm

Of the California sound

Shotgun with the brickhouse sides

Got my porno in hand

Flyin down to the underground

Lookin for a one night stand

When I was sixteen

I did it all in a year

Blacklight shine like a valentine

With a bit of belladonna and beer

Take it to the limit

Take it downtown

Rock it to the rhythm

Of the California sound

Take it to the limit

Take it downtown

Rock it to the rhythm

Of the California sound
