Drinks and dancing

Lyrics and Melody
by Alexey Peshkovsky

Drinks and dancing’s what I need
To make this perfect night complete,
Chase the thoughts out of my head.
Johnny Walker melts my senses,
Thoughts go round in slow dances,
Then I wake up in a cab.

Down the hole…
Thousand taillights through the tunnel to the tolls.
Thoughts returning slowly to my head,
And I hear whispers:

“You’re looking for meaning in meaningless stares,
Searching for hope in the hopeless endeavors,
And if you don’t run now you ain’t got a prayer
Cause you got no cash for the toll and the fare…

One day when my engine quits
They will take me from these streets
To the junkyard in the sky.
Can they salvage any parts?
Will they fix my broken heart?
Or put me in a cab and drive me

Down the hole…
Thousand taillights through the tunnel to the tolls.
Thoughts returning slowly to my head,
And I hear whispers:

“You’re looking for meaning in meaningless stares,
Searching for hope in the hopeless endeavors.
You’re best give it up, you’re not getting nowhere,
A waist of your liver, the toll and the fare…
