Haven't slept in seven days, I gotta keep my story straight Cleaning up my unclean way and I got to stay awake
They're on the sidewalk, on the rooftop All they do is talk, talk, talk about me
Now I know how neon feels Fluorescent steals my eyes Never close
Haven't slept in eighteen days, can't keep my story straight The hidden camera doesn't faze me but I've got to stay Away from eavesdropping operators, buzzing lights in Elevatorsmicrophonic lovers under me
They're on the rooftop, on the sidewalk All they do is talk, talk, talk about me They talk about me
Now I know how neon feels Fluorescent steals my eyes Never close a dead man's deals No coffin seals my eyes Never close
Don't they know who I think I am? I'm a child of god, I'm an honest man Don't they know who I think I am? I'm a man of god, I'm an idle hand Don't they know who I think I am? I'm the hand of god, I'm the end of man
Now I know how neon feels Fluorescent steals my eyes Never close a dead man's deals No coffin seals my eyes Never close
