《Nostalgia | ✔》Jazz age (1920s)
Advertisement
you're in my line of sight
with the vintage music's echo
ringing in the background
'n' i sense, you're a canceled stamp
but i'm a big timer, blue serge
so let me take you to the jazz age
with a fag between my lips
and a bottle of moonshine
hidden in the Struggle Buggy
of my swanky red flivver
that'll make you forget
all those ten cent boxes
spanning the streets at night
under the shady neon light
come, i'll take you for a ride
around the Tin Pan Alley
and we'll ankle on the street
even if we'll be on the lam
and i'll make you feel unreal
because you deserve to be
anything but this blooey
ha! you thought i'm zozzled
but i see right through you
and i carry a torch for you
despite of all that i see
because you were a live wire
and a killjoy stole your smile
which i ought to return back
even if i sound like a weasel
so how about sharing a joe
when sun's about to kiss us
on the couch in my lounge
in front of a rough TV static
while you smile leisurely
when i say 'cash or check?'
because i sound splifficated
but my voice is still copacetic
for this is what love does to us
this is what love does to us
when java holds the effect
that of magical giggle water
and i swear, i didn't drink
but i feel like i'm all ossified
'cause i'm so stuck on you
with no power in my stilts
that they dare walk back
to the same old party crowd
that streeted us at midnight
so why not go on a whoopee
because i don't understand
what moment or time is it
or what era we belong to
for the sweet look of you
makes me wonder verily
that it's not the 21st century
and we're stuck somewhere
amidst 1920s, aren't we?
oh girl, where did we meet?
in the middle of modern epoch
or somewhere in the jazz age?
and are you smiling now
for this is what love does to us?
