"Neon Forest" by Iggy Pop
from the 1990 Virgin release
Brick by Brick
i'm sliding like a lizard on my belly
and back
it's a miracle i havn
t gallen
through any cracks
the life on display is trouble for
sure
they drugs that i took have makde
me impure
the neon forest is lighting up
the neon forest is lighting up
my brain
i've learned some nasty lessons
so i'm shutting
my mouth
a fury in my gut is spinning me
round
and round
to be a total phony is the winning
desing
when the fabric of life is a horny
goldmine
the neon forest is my home
and like a cartoon cat i roam
where only kids are still alive
and anyway they're gonna fry
my brain
you can get a weird prize for
being adored
you can join the "in crowd" for
being a whore
although you are llonely you wish
for a fence
america takes drugs in phychic
defense
you can say waht you want gbut
nobody's
there have you got any money?
are you anybody? |
