The Killers - Day And Age (2008) - Neon Tiger lyrics

• Far from the evergreen of old Assam
  Far from the break fall on the trails of old Saigon
  Straight from the poster town of scorn and Ritz
  To bring you the wilder side of gold and glitz
  
  But neon tiger there's a lot on your mind
  They promised just to pet you, but don't you let them get you
  Away, away, oh run
  Under the heat of the southwest sun
  
  Took to the spotlight like a diamond ring
  Came from the woodwork with the hopes they might
  Redeem themselves for poor decisions to win big
  
  But neon tiger there's a lot on your mind
  They strategize and name you, but don't you let them tame you
  You're far too pure and bold
  To suffer the strain of the pain that's old???
  
  I don't wanna be kept, I don't wanna be caged
  I don't wanna be damned oh hell
  I don't wanna be broke, I don't wanna be saved
  I don't wanna be S.O.L.
  Give me rolling hills so tonight can be the night that I stand among a thousand thrills
  Can you cut me some slack
  'Cause I don't wanna go back
  I want a new day and age
  
  Come on girls and boys, everyone make some noise!
  
  But neon tiger there's a price on your head
  They strategize and cut you, but don't you let them touch you
  Away, away, oh run
  I'm begging you neon tiger run
  
  Under the heat of
  Under the heat of
  Under the heat of the southwest sun
  
  Neon Tiger
  There's a lot on your mind
