Lyrics
Do you remember neon signs like Factory Tile
Which is in South Bend, Indiana, but it doesn't rotate anymore?
We drove along the boulevards
All lined with ruins of Victorian-style hoarders and those everyday street warriors
We floated by like dreams
Kaleidoscopic remnants of those dreams
Called nightmares where the light is a strange colour
Like before a deadly twister is
Come sink with me into the yawning abyss
You'd have to be a crazy person to assert you never wanted this
Come jump with me into the maw of the great yawning abyss
Don't be silly now, you know you've always wanted this
We sat in Googie cafés and you had that look upon your face
Because the autumn never came, the autumn never came
I've thought about ceramic figurines and bomb pops
And the summer splashing in the pool, listening to the radio
Supperware, terrariums and pink scotch, yes I'd take
But now your father's home, turn off the TV
Wash your hands, it's supper time
Everybody says they didn't see it coming
It was more like hissing Sleestaks moving slowly slithering with confidence
Come sink with me into the yawning abyss
You'd have to be a crazy person to assert you never wanted this
Come jump with me into the maw of the great yawning abyss
Don't be silly now, you know you've always wanted this
Come sink with me into the yawning abyss
You'd have to be a crazy person to assert you never wanted this
Come jump with me into the maw of the great yawning abyss
Don't be silly now, you know you've always wanted this
