lyrics

In the car she stole from home
She rides the needle down the dial
Cause your tape’s stuck inside
Best of the MC5

Every time you run off it’s the same
You call our invitations through your fire
Trashy magic is our show, weightless in the afterglow
Shadows in the twilight sun, shadows joining everyone

When the band’s on stage they toss you out
So you roll like you’re on fire
Trashy magic is our show, a candle maid from Mexico
Preying on the open plain shooting bison from the train

Mary knows we’re only made of ice
But we run on fire
Trashy magic is our show, we’ll
Trace her fingernail through your waxy grime

On her table after hours
Summer lilies from the girls
Your tape is her only prize
Best of the MC5
