Pop Magic

Coming soon to an iTunes near you...

They asked me if I'd go out to the laser show
Heard about it on the radio
Now here we are in steaming summer

Lasers can shape your corneal contour
But they can't make poor Emerson Lake and Palmer better

Is something wrong when I'm not put off by this?
The stars shine onto Petty Floyd and Kiss

Cause I've got an awkward smile
Just right for nights like this

Plastic cups and pent up discontent
I try not to forget just where my keys and I.D. are
The beams bend and curve, all of the strains are heard
Familiar refrains emerge from "Urgent" into "Drive My Car"

Shouts of irony turned serious
We have been severed from our moorings
What we shared has been made clear to us
Out of the night into the morning

The lights come on, people move along
It's just us and these old songs here in FM ecstasy
Lasers are useful for tattoo removal
But to be truthful, you can't improve on nights like these
