The Neutral

Sonic Youth · Rather Ripped [2006]

He's not a dreamer or a schemer,

running away from me

He's not a singer, an entertainer

with no follow thru

He's not a poet or a mystic

with his cgarette unglued

He just neutral, and he's weary

not even brand new.

It's a perfect sin

close yr eyes and loose the rest

It's a perfect sin

close yr mind and feel the best

Everyone has a headache

imprecise , hard to cure

Got a shake it, what ails you

the lines are a blur

Is it a pain in her heart

dark and gray from the start

You won't seduce me, or attract

just cause yr a stray

It's a perfect sin

close yr eyes and loose the rest

It's a perfect sin

close yr mind and feel the best

Why won't you tell me what's inside yr head

Why won't you show me yr secret bed, secret bed?

he's not a dreamer or a schemer

running away from you

He's not a singer, an entertainer

with no follow thru

He's not a poet or a mystic

with his cigarette unglued

he 's not a cowboy or a loner with nothing to do

he's neutral yeah he's weary,

not even brand

he's neutral yea he's weary

and he's so in love with you.
