"Up in the hills around Coldwater Canyon
were the houses that hung
from the mountainside on poles,
balancing dangerously on the cliff,
like the spinning-plate act in a sideshow...
 |
| My blouse is thrifted. |
Parties where nobody really knew
or even liked anyone else,
but we all pretended that we did.
Parties where we talked a lot, but said very little.
 |
| My purse is also thrifted. |
The years have gone on, and music
and fashion have changed,
but the spinning-plate homes still do their balancing act up there,
and the spinning-plate people still throw parties full of strangers..."

It used to be this dying breed
Well I've got a bad feeling about this
I've got a bad feeling about this
...Well sad, small, sure and porcelain
You're skin and bones, I'm a nervous wreck
Well I've got a bad feeling about this (when it comes to this)
I've got a bad feeling about this"...A Decade Under The Influence
