doll squad's at the drive-in

it's 1973

the fruit is full and fat this year on the orange trees

which grow in clusters

the city sixty miles away

as the sunset tries desperately to break through the gray

and the stardust came down, royal blue

as the san bernadino sky showered over you



coming home early is always a mistake

but when you see that woman on the sofa something in you breaks

you've got a celluloid tendency to flare out and blaze

and the report sounds once like a failed hymn of praise

and the stardust came down, royal blue

as the san bernadino sky showered over you
