Into Deep Neutral Lyrics - Polly Jean Harvey

( moonshake ) 

When you're off-kilter and the world it makes no sense 

When you spy intruders at your first line of defence 

Switch into deep neutral 

Drop everything you know 

Switch into deep neutral 

And everything goes 

When everyone's so uptight their laces are undone 

Keep taking the tablets, keep the darkness on the run 

If you switch into deep neutral 

Your consumer choice is made 

Switch into deep neutral 

And the competition fades 

In a deep neutral state there's no race to be won 

There's nothing to do cause there's nothing to be done 

Switch into deep neutral 

Say "that's the way it goes" 

Switch into deep neutral 

And everything flows 

When I make a small commitment, that's when I get the fear 

I up the dose of neutral, it's the only legal gear 

The cost of living's so dear 

Switch into deep neutral 

Drop everything you know 

Switch into deep neutral 

And anything goes 

Talking to my best friend, she said that she was going to die 

I said "living is for losers, so there's no need to cry" 

Switch into deep neutral 

As you hit the endless night 

Slide along the tunnel 

To the distant wheel of light
