Glory of the 80's (Live In Nashville 11/12/07)
Tori Amos
I took a taxi from L.A. to Venus in 1985
I was electromagnetically sucked back
Into a party going on that night
It was the glories of the 80's
With karma drawn up in lines
And two bugle boy models saying:
"Baby, it's a freebee, you sure look deprived."
I had the story of O in my bucket seat
In my wannabe Mustang
Auditioning for reptiles
In their Raquel Welsh campaign
In the glories of the 80's
You said: "I'm not afraid to die."
I said: "I don't find that remotely funny,
even on the space cake high."
And then, when it all seemed clear
Just then you go and disappear
Disappear
Silicone party barbies to the left
And Joan of Arcs to the right
No one feeling insecure
We were all gorge and famous in our last lives
In the glories of the 80's
You said: "The end is nothing to fear."
I said: "Blow the end now, baby.
Who do I gotta shag to get outta here?"
And then, when it all seemed clear
Just then you go and disappear
Disappear
Sure you're out there orbiting around
Sure you're out there orbiting around
Wish I had you back now
Sure you're out there orbiting around
Sure you're out there orbiting around
Wish I had you back now
I met a drag king called Venus
She had a velvet hologram
She said: "My husband ran off with my shaman,
but they love me as I am."
In the glories of the 80's
I may not have to die
I'll clone myself like that blonde chick
That sings Bette Davis Eyes
And then, when it all seemed clear
Just then you go and
Sure you're out there orbiting around
Sure you're out there orbiting around
Wish I had you back now
And then, when it all seemed clear
Just then you go and disappear
Disappear
I took a taxi from L.A. to Venus in 1985
