Cruiser Lyrics

Big city noise disappears
Sucker punch is in your heart
Light is reason light is due
My shape is shapeless in your suit

Chrome red eyeballs reflect and roll
Simple sun is slowly sinking
Roman shoes and pretty hats
Glitter bombs that beat the beat

You comb the night 'cause you're a cruiser
And you never get enough
When you're cruising down the street
And you're taking off the heat
When you're on the moonlight run

Floating jets and big vignettes
Get the treatment grab a cab
Set aside the screaming fish
Tell the world why you're so glad

Flip the switches pull the plug
You always wait for better news
You need a hit you need a slug
You don't easily get amused

You comb the night 'cause you're a cruiser
And you never get enough
When you're cruising down the street
And you're taking off the heat
When you're on the moonlight run

Elliot really lets it rip on this one. Another underappreciated great song. One of my favs.

My Favorite.

When I first heard this song back in the day, I said: "Hey, it's those weird chimes you always here in departments stores." There was a trend in the 80's where people would just drive around and socialize with anyone in the car called cruising. It got so bad in some places they set up no cruising zones.
