I took a taxi

From LA to Venus in 1985

I was electromagnetically sucked back

Into the party going on that night And it was the glory of the 80's

With karma drawn up in lines

And two bugle boy models saying

"Baby, it's a freebie you sure look deprived' I had the Story of O in my bucket seat

And my wanna be Mustang

Auditioning for reptile

In their Raquel Welsh campaign In the glories of the 80's

You said, "I'm not afraid to die"

I said, "I don't find that remotely funny

Even on this space cake high" And then when it all seemed clear

Just then you go and disappear, disappear Silicone party, Barbies to the left

And Joan of Arcs to the right

No one feeling insecure we were

All gorge and famous in our last lives In the glories of the 80's

You said, 'The end is nothing to fear'

I said, "Blow the end, now, baby

Who do I gotta *** to get outta here" And then when it all seemed clear

Just then you go and disappear, disappear Sure you're out there orbiting around

Sure you're out there orbiting around

Wish I had you back now

Sure you're out there orbiting around

Sure you're out there orbiting around

Wish I had you back now I met a drag king called Venus

She had a velvet hologram

She said, 'My husband ran off with my shaman

But they love me as I am" In the glories of the 80's

I may not have to die

I'll clone myself like that blond chick

That sings Bette Davis Eyes And then when it all seemed clear

Just then you go and Sure you're out there orbiting around

Sure you're out there orbiting around

Wish I had you back now And then when it all seemed clear

Just then you go and disappear, disappear I took a taxi

From LA to Venus in 1980

1980, 1980, 1985
