Victory City Testo

I'm going to be cheerful like Salman Rushdie
I'm gonna feel comfortable in my own body
I'm gonna be able to tell a story
Till all the diamonds are extracted from the earth
Until the jeweler's loupe can tell me exactly what it's worth

I'm gonna have courage like Candice Bergen
I'm gonna listen for the ventriloquist until I've heard him
I'll set fire to the dollhouse, leave it burning
And all the policemen that tried to scare me straight Those dummies can talk and talk and talk and talk
But they'll just have to wait

I got jumped in by some drunk kids
While we were dope sick
You got sexed in
You got your lip split
I got my ass kicked
On the Avenue of Time
Victory City

I want to stand tall like Joey Strummer
I wanna live my whole life like it's the last day of summer
You looked down at your shoes and asked for my number
Said you'd call me if the moonlight ever hurt
Said if you came running after me, baby
Well, it'd be in reverse

I got tempted to just give in
On a park bench Felt the earth spin
I just didn't
I saw your footprints
On the Avenue of Time

I wanna look you in the eye
Even if we're going blind
