[Intro]

[Verse]
I Fthought I saw my god, through Gfrays of total blood,
at Fsome Hampton Beach club. And Ghalf-convinced he had
the Fthings I thought he did...
Hey, GRitchie, it's your dad.
I've gone so Ffar away now, kid. From coast to Gcoast and far beyond.
The Fwaves rose up like gasps out Gon the astral sea,
Fstarships shifting in the crud... Don't believe that Gstuff on your TV.
No, I've got to leave. I can't Ccome back.
C D C Em
[Chorus]
FLido Pier Gsuicide car.
FLido Pier Gsuicide car.
FLido Pier Gsuicide car.
It's a straight Cshot drive to a Emlife full of Fstars.
[Verse]
At first it Fseemed a little speck, and then it Gseemed a little mist.
We took our Fdrinks out to the deck. We watched that Gsilver ladder twist.
We flew over the Fhills, the harbor bar. Over the Gwakeward-flashing spray.
We watched it Fshrink, that Jag, that Jaguar. We watched our Gold friends fall away.
[Chorus]
My heart, oh, feel it FpoundGing
to watch our little Ftown reGceding.
They're not knowing why or Fhow we're Gleaving, only Cbelieving
C D C Em
in a FLido Pier Gsuicide car.
FLido Pier Gsuicide car.
FLido Pier Gsuicide car.
FLido Pier Gsuicide, suicide.
FLido Pier Gsuicide car.
[Bridge]
He's a Framrod handshake Cstud. He's a Fsteward of a Cland
hand-Fwashed in hero's Cblood. He's a Flodger of Cdemands.
He's the Fhassler of the Cgassed-up graspers Ftrying to make their Cgrands.
When he Fcatches me in Cfreezing seas, he'll Flead me into Cland.
He says he's Fgonna break my Cband. I just Fhave to take that Chand.
Oh, crocodGile!
[Chorus]
And can you hear the FshoutGing,
out there beyond the FboundGary?
Some Fdistant voice is sounding, and what is it Gsaying?
Something about a FLido Pier Gsuicide car.
FLido Pier Gsuicide car.
FLido Pier Gsuicide suicide Ccar.
