The Neutral

Sonic Youth

He's not a dreamer or a schemer,
Running away from me
He's not a singer, an entertainer
With no follow through
He's not a poet or a mystic
With his cigarette unglued
He's just neutral, yeah he's weary
Not even brand new

It's a perfect sin
Close your eyes and lose the rest
It's a perfect sin
Close your mind and feel the best

Everyone has a headache
Imprecise, hard to cure
Got to shake it, what ails you
The lines are a blur
Is it a pain in your heart
Dark and gray from the start
You won't seduce me, or attract me
Just 'cause you're a stray

It's a perfect sin
Close your eyes and lose the rest
It's a perfect sin
Close your mind and feel the best

Why won't you tell me what's inside your head
Why won't you show me your 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 through
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 is neutral yeah he's weary,
Not even brand new
He is neutral, yeah he's weary
And he's so in love with you
