Neon Tiger

歌詞

Far from the evergreen of old Assam Far from the rainfall on the trails of old Saigon Straight from the poster town of scorn and Ritz To bring you the wilder side of gold and glitz Run, neon tiger, there's a lot on your mind They promised just to pet you, but don't you let 'em get you Away, away, oh run Under the heat of the southwest sun You took to the spotlight like a diamond ring They came from the woodwork in the hopes they might redeem Themselves for poor decisions To win big Run, neon tiger, there's a lot on your mind They'll strategize and name you, but don't you let 'em tame you You're far too pure and bold To suffer the strain of the hangman's hold I don't wanna be kept I don't wanna be caged I don't wanna be damned, oh hell I don't wanna be broke I don't wanna be saved I don't wanna be S.O.L. Give me rolling hills So tonight could be the night That I stand among a thousand thrills Mister, cut me some slack 'Cause I don't wanna go back I want a new day and age Come on, girls and boys Everyone make some noise Run, neon tiger, there's a price on your head They'll hunt you down and gut you, I'll never let 'em touch you Away, away, oh run I'm begging you, neon tiger, run Under the heat of Under the heat of Under the heat of the southwest sun Neon tiger There's a lot on your mind
