NEON - Wuh! Wuh!
(The Complete Neon Collection 1977 – 1979)
(All lyrics written by Tim Jones except “Nutcase” by Mark Dunn & Tim Jones)

Life’s A Downer

I want you to say I love you,
I’m looking to you for my hope and strength.

Life’s a downer.

I never thought that life could be a bummer,
Heads that roll and brains asunder.

Life’s a downer.

Won’t you always stay by my side,
With teeth that bite and claws that scratch.

Life’s a downer.

All I Want’s Your Body Yeah

Yes that’s right,
All I want’s Your Body Yeah,
I really don’t care about your love,
Now you may think I’m an inhuman man,
But look here honey,
I don’t give a damn.

I know you think my love is funny,
It’s not half as bad as the laugh I get out of you,
Just keep on trying to feel what you want to feel,
And maybe someday it will come true.

Hunny Bunny

I know you really want to be on my mind,
But I know about you honey and your kind,
You ain’t no bunny honey and you ain’t blind,
I don’t really care I’m leaving you behind.

The pain that I’m feeling ain’t nothin’ new,
I’ve been hurt before and I’ve felt so blue,
The world is just a cliché as the wheels grind on,
And I don’t like you honey or the trip you’re on.

Whizzo!

I can’t think of words to say,
Cause you’re stompin’ on my children ooh yeah,
Flesh keeps my body in,
A hard boiled egg and yolk.

Whizzo! Jolly Good,
Whizzo! Rather good.
So keep on smashing bottles,
Give me the lion’s mouth,
I don’t need you to tell me,
I’ll have a pint in The Howf.

Whizzo! Jolly Good,
Whizzo! Rather good.

Anytime, Anyplace, Anywhere

It says “Lust for war”,
Written on the gates of hell,
They say thank our God,
They’re all dead as well.

No place to go to hide away.

The tears in your eyes,
Come as no surprise,
The rising cost of your arms agree.

Anytime, anyplace, anywhere,
No place to go to hide away.

Bottles

I constantly suffer from pains in the head,
And it’s said that I’m just a fool,
I permanently live in a hole in the ground,
And I never stop to look around.

Let me out!

All the kids fighting the system,
The whole world’s a clock,
And it tells us the time,
A scolded cat or a slaughtered lamb,
Ah! Please don’t erase me,
Make me go blim blam.

Let me out!

I’m Only Little

Well I know I’m only little,
But I know my voice is strong yeah,
And I still care about my country,
And the way it gets along,
Ah! You destroy my karma,
You mess up my town,
You’d pay your money,
Just to bring everybody down.

Well my auntie’s budgerigar,
She knows you all tweet tweet,
So what you gonna do,
Smash your head against a wall yeah,
Well I know I’m only little,
But I know my voice is strong yeah,
And I still care about my country,
And the way it gets along.

Wuh! Wuh!

Really must be something that this world is for,
Besides being all messed up, loneliness.

Wuh! Wuh!

Don’t count your chickens before they’re hatched,
You may come out with your nose all thatched.

Wuh! Wuh!

Piranha

Good morning summer,
Softly with me lover,
Chewing me banana,
Nip me tongue piranha.

Make me awake,
It’s more than I can take,
Give me confidence,
Just for once piranha.

Bat Man

I’ve increased my perception,
I’ve created a link,
With a bat man,
Where’s it at for England,
Anyway for England.

Well we questioned our respondents,
They didn’t like it,
What goes on for bread and water,
Where’s it at for England,
Anyway for England.

I’m A Gent

I’m a gent, won’t rip you off,
Got lots of money, a white suit,
Telephone, long distance Geezer,
Give her one, eat your head,
Well look out, he wants your bread,
He’s a bum, a con man,
Anti-friends.

Still at large after years,
With that kink in my brain,
I don’t want to,
But try and stop me,
Smells like shit from down drains,
He got a face like pickles,
He got eyes like two props,
He got balls, squashed tomatoes,
No crap!

Lemonade’s A Gas

And he’s oh so frightened,
Don’t know what to do,
All a mess of confusion,
One thing that he’s sure of,
Close to you.

Keeps swallowing salt,
But he thinks it’s lemonade,
Eat your cak and throw it back,
And you’ve really got it made.

Don’t want to lose his head now,
Don’t want to be a rock star,
All he wants is his peace of mind,
Enough money and a cup of cha,
One thing that he’s sure of,
Close to you.

I like lemonade,
It is a gas.

Eyeing Up The Diddies

Leave it to the people that can talk,
They can pick up their women,
Before they can walk,
They prowl about like a stork,
Eyeing up those diddies,
Like a hawk.

Snail, won’t you sip my pint,
Snail, drink it through the night.

Uncle Ben knows where it’s at men,
He could tell you stories,
Like I don’t know when,
Well can ye no tak it,
Do ya ken,
And she said weed,
To the flowerpot men.

Snail, won’t you sip my pint,
Snail, drink it through the night.

Don’t Eat Bricks

He was sitting in the park,
In the afternoon,
Reading a book,
About his living room,
And people walked by,
And they stared into his eyes,
And no one had no money,
And no one meat pies.

Don’t smother your heather with weather!

She who dances,
And eats cheese on the moon,
She goes up,
But she don’t come down too soon,
Privately lovely,
But still picking your nose,
You don’t eat bricks,
So why you drink with a hose?

Don’t smother your heather with weather!

Hanging Off An O

Hanging off an o,
Seeing squares,
Here and there,
Hanging off an o,
Here – there – square.

Can’t you see?
That’s why,
Little boy have some pie,
Hanging off an o,
Here – there – square.

Hanging off an o!

Is it really art?
Criticism,
Boring fart,
Hanging off an o,
Here – there – square.

Chacun a son gout,
Like or lump,
Celery,
Hanging off an o,
Here – there – square.

Hanging off an o!

Confuse The News
(watering can, it grew a man)

Watering can,
It was leaking,
But my head,
It didn’t leak,
Until my head,
Was heard and said,
Watering can,
It was leaking.

Confuse the news!

Too many heads,
With big fat cows,
Growing hair,
With puny minds,
Confuse giraffes,
And eat my fruit,
On my head,
And growing hair.

Confuse the news.

Plum Plum Crazy

They didn’t know that,
It was all fixed,
I told you so plum plant,
It just grows,
It eats people,
You too sugar.

It’s purple tonight,
You better watch out!
Look out baby,
It’s plum, plum crazy.

They never thought,
The destiny controller,
The purple plum,
The plum steamroller,
No time to lose,
You better just holler,
Cause sugar.

It’s purple tonight,
You better watch out!
Look out baby,
It’s plum, plum crazy.

Exterminate

Holy mother of god!
Where am I at?
Afraid of the dark,
Don’t touch my hand.

Jeremiah,
Holes in the earth,
We’re all falling in,
No holes for me.

Exterminate!

Computer Fair

I’m in love with a computer,
But I’m only a typewriter,
Please don’t tell her that I love her,
She will only blow her fuses
At the…

This is typewriter calling to computer,
How are you?
I have got some data for you,
And I’ll bring it over later.

At the computer fair.

Well I finally met up with her,
And I gave her all my data,
That erotic calculator,
Makes my keys go all a quiver.

At the…

Suddenly she started talking to me,
Do you come here often?
I said only because you’re here,
She said good,
Let’s get it on then.

At the computer fair.

Talk To You

You make me feel I want to give,
And I am free,
And it’s so easy to shut down,
Your sense of love.

You are my sun,
You are my moon,
You are my universe.

Talk to you,
It’s so easy.

And I can talk to you,
But you must think,
Behind my words,
To believe what I say.

You are my sun,
You are my moon,
You are my universe.

Talk to you,
It’s so easy.

And sometimes I’m angry,
And I short circuit,
But please remember,
I will always be there.

You are my sun,
You are my moon,
You are my universe.

Talk to you,
It’s so easy.

A Grave Situation

If you want a piece of my power,
You better start crawling,
It’s getting better by the hour,
My influence and mauling,
I’m going to eat at your mind,
You’re going to kiss my feet,
I’m going to get inside your head,
All slimy!

It’s a very grave situation,
In the dead centre of town,
Feel like a rejuvenation,
Words are right for communication,
It’s a very grave situation,
In the dead centre of town.

You’re going to have to conform,
If you want to get it on,
I don’t care about your children,
Or their blinking form,
All I want is you for my power,
I don’t like your friends,
Or their ideals.

It’s a very grave situation,
In the dead centre of town,
Feel like a rejuvenation,
Words are right for communication,
It’s a very grave situation,
In the dead centre of town.

I Believe

Obsession with fighting,
Superior, inferior,
Don’t want to know,
Too blind to see,
Can’t you see the meaning?
Kill me I kill you,
Don’t think just fight,
No reason why.

We don’t look the same,
We’re different,
Who’s this Jesus?
Don’t want to know,
To blind to see,
Want to be respected,
Reputation’s worth a halfpenny,
Seek and you will find.

But I believe,
And I know in my heart.

Nutcase

God knows how many people,
Are buried in the undergrowth,
Millions have perished,
For their so called religious oath,
Carnations or roses?
In remembrance of blood,
Don’t talk to me about your love of good.

Take a good look at yourself,
Then you’ll see just who you are,
Take a good look at yourself, Then you’ll see that you are just a…

There is a very thin line,
Drawn between genius and mad,
But you just ain’t nothin’,
You can’t even be sad,
The doggie chased the butterfly,
And flowers sang songs,
Don’t talk to me about your love of good.

Take a good look at yourself,
Then you’ll see just who you are,
Take a good look at yourself,
Then you’ll see that you are just a…

In a nutshell,
Here’s a nutcase,
Smash his skull,
And eat his brains,
You can tell if he’s a kingo,
By the colour of his bloody brains.

Take a good look at yourself,
Then you’ll see just who you are,
Take a good look at yourself,
Then you’ll see that you are just a nut!

Nuclear Sun

You can’t judge the usefulness of electricity,
By the electric chair,
He told me on a cold night,
So how do you judge the usefulness of atomic power,
By the atomic bomb,
He told me on a cold night…

By the nuclear sun.

So who will judge it?
When our time is all gone,
And we’re waiting for,
Something to lift up our souls,
Maybe we’re trapped in a dream,
With our carcasses blue,
With no hope of that dream,
Ever coming true.

By the nuclear sun.

Hello And How Are You?

Hello and how are you?
I’m very well thanks.

You may think we are nuts,
We like to be alone,
Tired of me, sick of you,
Why don’t you go away.

Sometimes I feel,
Like I’m going round the bend,
And I wonder if it will ever end.

Hello and how are you?
I’m very well thanks.

No need to apologise,
Just try to get along,
Friendship is very dear,
Need me like I need you.

Sometimes I feel,
Like I’m going round the bend,
And I wonder if it will ever end.

I need you like you need me,
You need me like I need you.
