Shakytown Lyrics by Bryan Dunn

We Shall Be Monsters

2020

[Verse 1]
Headlights flashing, she drove into a wall again
It happens every now and then
She doesn't stop
I've been waiting for her to tell me what to do
Baby, it's not me, it's you
Do I look like a cop?

[Chorus]
And we're all afraid of what's been goin' down, down, down
Been goin' down, down, down
In Shakytown

[Verse 2]
Someone told her it's never gonna be enough
A little makeup and a lot of luck
And you'll get by
I believe her, the little quiver in her voice
It's never been my drug of choice
But it gets me high

[Chorus]
And we're all afraid of what's been goin' down, down, down
Been goin' down, down, down
In Shakytown

[Bridge]
Someday, someday we'll slide into the ocean
Someday, someday we'll slide into the sea
Someday, someday we'll slide into the ocean, the ocean
Someday, someday we'll slide into the sea
So tell the doctor, tell the lawyer, tell the father's last employer
I don't need a reason more than love
Headlights flashing, I drove into a wall to see
What it's like to be completely free
I still don't know

[Chorus]
And we're all afraid of what's been goin' down, down, down
Been goin' down, down, down
In Shakytown

[Outro]
Someday, someday we'll slide into the ocean
Someday, someday we'll slide into the sea
Someday, someday we'll slide into the ocean, the ocean
Someday, someday we'll slide into the sea
The sea, the sea, the sea, the sea
