Glitter Years lyrics

Denny was working it real hard
Down Sunset Boulevard
Back in nineteen-seventy-three
Why would he bother going home
His parents left him on his own
Who knows - maybe they were out getting stoned.

I don't really know
How we survived the glitter years
What did we do it all for
Do you remember the glitter years.
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/b/bangles/glitter_years.html ]
Oooh, we were the lost and lonely ones
We hid in the discotheques all night long
'Til we could see the morning sun
Denny was king, he'd rock the place
Dressed like a working girl from outer space
He was dancing like he wanted to dance his life away.

I don't really know
How we survived the glitter years
What did we do it all for
Do you remember the glitter years.

In December of seventy-four
Denny wrecked his father's car
Driving home that night
He was singing (singing).

"You'd better hang onto yourself"
"You'd better hang onto yourself".

I don't really know
How we survived the glitter years
I don't really know
I don't really.

I don't really know
How we survived the glitter years
I don't really know
I don't really know (no I don't).
