When sky blue gets dark enough
To see the colors of the city lights
A trail of ruby red and diamond white
Hits her like a sunrise
She comes and goes and comes and goes
Like no one can
Tonight she's out to lose herself
And find a high on Peachtree Street
From mixed drinks to techno beats it's always
Heavy into everything
I can't be her angel now
You know it's not my place to hold her down
And it's hard for me to take a stand
When I would take her anyway I can
Something's got a hold of my head
And it won't leave me alone
Neon when you come on
And it brings a new type of grace
And I keep coming back for more
And it leaves me with a shimmering face
It is yellow
I am playing with the cello
I wanted a fellow
They're so mellow
They're all down below
It is yellow
A vial of hope and a vial of pain
In the light they both looked the same
Poured them out on into the world
On every boy and every girl
Take the poison of your age
Don't lick your fingers when you turn the page
What I know is what you know is right
In the city it's the only light
Oh God! Well look at you now!
Oh! You lost it, but you don't know how!
In the light of a golden calf
Oh God! I had to laugh!
Something's got a hold of my head
And it won't leave me alone
Neon when you come on
And it brings a new type of grace
And I keep coming back for more
And it leaves me with a shimmering face
It is yellow
I am playing with the cello
I wanted a fellow
They're so mellow
They're all down below
It is yellow
Hey - what you going to do now
You're standing there and wondering how
You've got to make some noise
Just like one of the girls
Or even one of the boys
You - you put your hands together
Better make up a storm
Or some electricky weather
Now that the power's stop
Can you click your heels
Can you finger pop
When you do it
It ain't no disgrace
I can see it written all across your face
Neon Shuffle and shuffle into Outer Space
I said - is a dance for the human race
I said - is gonna pull you outta your place
Something's got a hold of my head
And it won't leave me alone
Neon when you come on
And it brings a new type of grace
And I keep coming back for more
And it leaves me with a shimmering face
It is yellow
I am playing with the cello
I wanted a fellow
They're so mellow
They're all down below
It is yellow
