Lyrics

Topanga's hot tonight
The city by the bay
Has movie stars and liquor stores
In soft decay

The rumbling from distant shores
Sends me to sleep
But the facts of life can sometimes
Make it hard to dream

Life rocked me, like Motley
Grabbed me by the ribbons in my hair
Life rocked me, ultra softly
Like the heavy metal that you wear

I'm flying to the moon again
Dreaming about heroin
How it gave you everything
And took your life away
I put you on an aeroplane
Destined for a foreign land
I hoped that you'd come back again
And tell me everything's okay, baby

Topanga's hot today
Manson's in the air
And all my friends have gone
'Cause they still feel him here

I wanna leave I'll probably stay
Another year
It's hard to leave when absolutely
Nothing's clear

Life rocked me, like Motley
Bad beginning to my new year
Life rocked me, ultra softly
Like the heavy metal that you hear

I'm flying to the moon again
Dreaming about heroin
And how it gave you everything
And took your life away
I put you on the aeroplane
Destined for a foreign land
I thought that you'd come back again
To tell me everything's okay, baby, yeah

It's fucking hot, hot
Winter in the city
Something 'bout this weather
Make these kids go crazy
It's hot even for February
Something 'bout the sun
Has made these kids get scary

Oh, writing in blood on my walls and shit
Like, oh my God, dripping off from the walls into the ducts and shit
Oh, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't sick of it
Baby, baby, come on, come on, come on, come on

I'm flying to the moon again
Dreaming about marzipan
Taking all my medicine
To take my thoughts away
I'm getting on that aeroplane
Leaving my old man again
I hope that I come back one day
To tell you that I really changed, baby

It's hot, hot
Something 'bout the city
Don't know what it is
That makes my head get crazy

Oh, makes me feel like I can change
Oh, all of my evil ways and shit
Mm, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't sick of it
