Howe Gelb - Neon Filler lyrics

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 on the merit of mankind the snakes and the saw-tooths they lay loving the buck and spending all their time setting up camp and running amuck {CHORUS} Light is not the neon filler (not the memory of the sun filled days) 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 scott says the demons run alongside a chunk of heaven hovering there where the wind in the image of the throne rides shotgun riddles of the wonderment, wonders of the firmament and me laid up, laid off and laying low {CHORUS} things could have been better they sure could not have gotten any worse tears out in the alley way and laughting waiting out front there in the hearse {CHORUS}
