lyrics

Hipster At Sonnys

Nine o’clock in the morning
Where the sun never shines
Neon painted black under neon lights
The lunch crowd is waiting
For the chef to arrive
Heading for the mountains
’Til its Miller Time

Next door
The drinks are shaken
Over here
We’re having a ball
Pretty good
Chances for the taken
You were breaking
Down the wall

-
Drakkar hangs on the wall
The juke box is on a roll
And you never know
Who ain’t gonna walk through that door
You can always make a friend
If you really don’t want to
Someone else’s life
Flash before your eyes

Next door
The drinks are shaken
Over here
We’re having a ball
Pretty good
Chances for the taken
You were breaking
Down the wall

-
When night finally dawns
The parking light’s on
And the doorman
Takes five ’til nine
There’s a hipster at Sonny’s
Found his place at the bar
Looking for his change
But it was all Gone

Next door
The drinks are shaken
Over here
We’re having a ball
Pretty good
Chances for the taken
You were breaking
Down the wall
