Lyrics
Suburban Moonshine
by Michael Salas
Copyright 2006 Old Villian Music (BMI) Administered by Bug Music
A seedy documentary on life airs tonight at ten
Relax and grab some sandwiches and sit back in your favorite chair
We?re all speeding somewhere toward that big decision
What can we be fishing for when we?ve never been fishing?
How do you like your coffee, cream and sugar or just plain black?
Black is my favorite color ?cause it hides so much more than white
We?re all speeding somewhere toward that big decision
What can we be fishing for when we?ve never been fishing?
I?ve long been befuddled but I think I?ve figured out this game
Suburban moonshine goes down hard and burns like flame
Tony lost his concentration but he got it back with some smoke
And Jenny?s walking around the city looking for a glimmer of hope
We?re all speeding somewhere toward that big decision
What can we be fishing for when we?ve never been fishing?
I?ve long been befuddled but I think I?ve figured out this game
Suburban moonshine goes down hard and burns like flame
Here?s to life
Here?s to love
