The myth of Pearl
Built to twirl
The bitter saint or the test card girl
We were hexed, jinxed
White lights from above
Princess reign
The winter train
The borough bridge and the quick refrain
We were hoods, punks
And our best friends called it love
We spent our nights and the coffee
Shops where we'd stay up late for weeks.
Hitched a ride from Sunnyside to the downtown city streets,
Thinking about weekends when and how we
Were then when our hiccups were the same
Peechees songs and sing-a-longs with the hand claps in the rain
I wish we were back
I wish we were back again
Doing the Neutron
Doing the Neutron
You turn your back and then you're gone
You turn your back and then you're gone
You turn your back and then you're gone
And then you're away
You turn your back and then you're gone
You turn your back and then you're gone
You turn your back and then you're gone
And then you're away
You turn your back and then you're gone
You turn your back and then you're gone
You turn your back and then you're gone
And then you're away
You drew your gun
On the vacant one
When you set your sights on the soches son
He was pomp, dumb
Plush Algonquin loud
Abandon sings
For the wayward kings
With a ba ba bav and he'd buy you things
You were sweet, and stuck
With the jam the jukebox crowd
We spent our nights and the coffee
Shops where we'd stay up late for weeks.
Hitched a ride from Sunnyside to the downtown city streets,
Thinking about weekends when and how we
Were then when our hiccups were the same
Peechees songs and sing-a-longs with the hand claps in the rain
I wish we were back
I wish we were back again
Doing the Neutron
Doing the Neutron
You turn your back and then you're gone
You turn your back and then you're gone
You turn your back and then you're gone
And then you're away
I wish we were back
I wish we were back again
I wish we were back
Doing the Neutron
Doing the Neutron
You turn your back and then you're gone
You turn your back and then you're gone
You turn your back and then you're gone
And then you're away
You turn your back and then you're gone
You turn your back and then you're gone
You turn your back and then you're gone
And then you're away
You turn your back and then you're gone
You turn your back and then you're gone
You turn your back and then you're gone
And then you're away
