Thomas Dolby - Neon Sisters lyrics
Your rating:
(This song is for a friend, because I never had a chance to tell him) Neon, we were the neon sisters Standing in the cold rain Waiting for a home game Neon, the neon sisters Up and down the M1 95 and then some Midnight, for the neon sisters And London was a bombsight Frozen in the moonlight And honey for the neon sisters Honey came in all shapes Pinafore and a snowflake And you borrow from dream-mongers And then you live to be a hundred And you share the spoils you plunder Until the day you wake up hungering for neon Then where were the neon sisters? Reeling from a cowpunch Looking for a free lunch Anywhere the wind blows The club for heroes Blew me into Hollywood Blew you to skid row But I should have been there with you The night you died I think a part of me died with you But in my heart Where could I find it to forgive you? Until the night You went and stuck a dirty needle in your vein Of all the fires That ever thawed a cooling planet Yours burned bright With no chemical fan to it So tell me why If there's a good and there's an evil On one of those nights Did you stick a dirty needle in your vein?
