Neon Filler

Well yeah, things could have been better They sure could not have gotten much worse When there were tears, out in the alley And laughter waiting, out front in the hearse And there's remark about contender Repulsa ain't too hard to find Conclusion based on surrender And the general dismissal of the merit of mankind The snakes and the saw-tooths They lay, lovin' the buck And spendin' all their time Settin' up camp, and... Runnin' amuck (Light) well, light is not the neon filler (Not the memory of the sun-filled days) It's not the memory of sun filled-days by solar spark (Light is the Moses) light is the Moses Splitting the waves In a sea so dark There's a town in the high desert, where doctor Gene Says the demons run Alongside a chunk of heaven hovering there Where the wind in the image of that throne-right shotgun Riddles of bewonderment Wonders of the firmament, and... Me, laid-up Laid-off, and laying low Well, light is not the neon filler It's not the memory of sun filled-days by solar spark (Light is the Moses) light is the Moses (Splitting the waves) (In a sea so dark) Things could have been better It sure couldn't have got any worse Tears out in the alleyway They're laughin', waitin' out front there in the hearse Light (light) is a neon filler (not the memory...) It's not the memory of sun filled-days by solar spark Light is the Moses One supposes Splitting the waves In a sea so dark So dark, so dark Mm-mm, mm, mm
