Shine Lyrics - Singles - Junkhouse

We live around the hydro towers 

Listen to them singing in the park 

Wind our clock too tight 

And all the radios are glowing in the dark 

Mothers lie down in the day time 

And dream about Hollywood 

I know that they'd get there if they could 

[Chorus:] 

It's just a matter of time 

Before we get to shine 

It's not a question of when 

Or who does the crime 

We show our skin through picture windows 

Sit around cross legged on the floor 

Our living rooms electric, 

TVs, light bulbs, irons, cancer to the core 

Out in our back yards waiting 

For women in flying saucers 

Under the stars and power lines 

[Chorus:] 

The fans and the air conditioners 

Runnin' in movie houses 

Our mother's not coming home again 

[Chorus:]
