I took a taxi from LA to Venus in 1985
I was electro magnetically sucked back into a party going on that night
It was the glory 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 of my wanna be mustang
Auditioning for reptiles in their Raquel Welsh campaign
It was 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 this space cake high
And then when it all seemed to clear
Just then you go and disappear
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 out of here
And then when it all seemed clear
Just then you go and disappear
Disappear, 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 call 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
Wish I had you back now
And then when it all seemed clear
Just then you go and disappear
Disappear, disappear, disappear

I took a taxi from LA to Venus in 1980, 1980, 1980, 1985
