Glory Of The 80's         
             


i took a taxi form la to venus 
in 1985 i was electromagnetically sucked 
back into a party going on that night 
it was the glory of the 80s with karma drawn up in lines 
and 2 bugle boy models saying baby it's a freebie 
you sure look deprived i had the 
story of o in my bucket seat 
of my wanna be mustang 
auditioning for reptiles in their 
raquel welsh campaign 
in the glories of the 80s you said 
i'm not afraid to die i said 
i don't find that remotely funny even 
on this space cake high 
and then when it all seemed clear 
just then you go and disappear 
silicone party babies to the left 
and joan of arcs to the right 
no one feeling insecure 
we were all gorge and famous in our last lives 
in the glories of the 80s you said 
the end is nothing to fear i said 
blow the end 
now baby who do i gotta shag to get outta here 
and then when it all seemed clear 
just then you go and disappear 
sure you're out there orbiting around 
wish i had you back now 
i met a drag king called venus 
she had a velvet hologram she said 
my husband ran off with my shaman but they love me as i am 
in the glories of the 80s 
i may not have to die 
i'll clone myself like that blonde chick 
that sings bette davis eyes and then 
when it all seemed to clear 
just then 
you go and disappear
