Stoned Houses, Pt. 2

(album: Elevator - 1979)

I've never been, I never wanted to go
Another line and it's another show
Philadelphia, Atlanta, Bel-Air
Then off to London but I don't really care

'Cause it's just a photograph
Just a close-up zone
Pin-up on the wall
Mail order clone

I hear the sound of the stoned houses
Broken glass
I hear the sound of the stoned houses
Feel the sound of the broken glass

Hollywood, Holly bull, holy shit
You pay your dues and that's all that you get
Some other crashed out suicide call
Some other mother with his back against the wall

'Cause it's just a dollar bill
Just a quick exchange
Override success
Life rearranged

Inside the sound of the stoned houses
Broken glass
Inside the sound of the stoned houses
Feel the sound of the broken glass

Better get up, better get down
Living a lie, never say die

It's just the sound of the broken glass
I hear the sound
I hear, I hear the sound

Should've seen the band
