Sister Shirley lyrics

Everyone that should has got their dark glasses on
But it`s not as warm as i expected
I`ve paraded your photo through san mateo
Dreamin` `86 was resurrected

Chorus

And some thought they`d seen you, sister shirley
I swear i saw you meeting them
With better clothes and a different smile
Where on earth should i begin

Northern california`s got that brochure appeal
But where`s the wine that you poeticized
Nineteen and pregnant and hatin` the means
You responded to your thought dream cries

Chorus

Sun affirms the bayshore freeway, the moon burns bright in burlingame
Two weeks straight our daily bread`s conclusions turn the same
Face me if and when i face you, black and white, how we embrace you

We love you and we hate you

Chorus

What`s your name now, sister shirley
Did you run to better ground
