Lost Our Friends to Heavy Metal - Tullycraft

Well you were dressed like Shirley Temple, I was James Dean

We were ex-lion tamers, we were seventeen

We lived for Rodney’s English Disco and the Diamond Dogs

They called us young and disaffected, in fact we’d

We’d taken once inside

And once inside of Rodney’s everybody’s a star

We stood up when Sidney shouted, «This is not who we are!»

Make a list of disappointments, failures, cities, and trends

As the thrift store ballerinas feed us

We thought the years would save us

Both of us had settled

Lost our friends to heavy metal

Both of us had settled

Lost our friends to heavy metal
