[Intro]
[Verse]
I thought I saw my god, through frays of total blood,
at some Hampton Beach club. And half-convinced he had
the things I thought he did...
Hey, Ritchie, it s your dad.
I ve gone so far away now, kid. From coast to coast and far beyond.
The waves rose up like gasps out on the astral sea,
starships shifting in the crud... Don t believe that stuff on your TV.
No, I ve got to leave. I can t come back.
[Chorus]
Lido Pier suicide car.
Lido Pier suicide car.
Lido Pier suicide car.
It s a straight shot drive to a life full of stars.
[Verse]
At first it seemed a little speck, and then it seemed a little mist.
We took our drinks out to the deck. We watched that silver ladder twist.
We flew over the hills, the harbor bar. Over the wakeward-flashing spray.
We watched it shrink, that Jag, that Jaguar. We watched our old friends fall away.
[Chorus]
My heart, oh, feel it pounding
to watch our little town receding.
They re not knowing why or how we re leaving, only believing
in a Lido Pier suicide car.
Lido Pier suicide car.
Lido Pier suicide car.
Lido Pier suicide, suicide.
Lido Pier suicide car.
[Bridge]
He s a ramrod handshake stud. He s a steward of a land
hand-washed in hero s blood. He s a lodger of demands.
He s the hassler of the gassed-up graspers trying to make their grands.
When he catches me in freezing seas, he ll lead me into land.
He says he s gonna break my band. I just have to take that hand.
Oh, crocodile!
[Chorus]
And can you hear the shouting,
out there beyond the boundary?
Some distant voice is sounding, and what is it saying?
Something about a Lido Pier suicide car.
Lido Pier suicide car.
Lido Pier suicide suicide car.
