歌词
[Intro] [Verse] Dust on the rafters Floorboards that creak Found a little secret I wasn't meant to seek Underneath the insulation A shoe box in isolation Held together by a rubber band Right here in my shaking hand [Pre-Chorus] The tape machine is humming low Watching all the shadows grow Pull the lid and let it go Everything I used to know [Chorus] Plastic rings and neon things The kind of joy a cereal brings Tucked away beneath the floor I don't need much anymore Just a whistle and a glow From twenty-seven years ago [Post-Chorus] (Ooh, the neon glow) (Ooh, twenty years ago) [Verse] A dinosaur with a missing tail Sent through the morning mail Stickers that have lost their glue Found a photo of me and you Crinkled edge and faded blue Grandma knew just what to do She kept the scraps I threw away Saved them for a rainy day [Pre-Chorus] The organ warbles in the heat Cardboard drums a steady beat It's a little bit out of tune Like a hazy afternoon in June [Chorus] Plastic rings and neon things The kind of joy a cereal brings Tucked away beneath the floor I don't need much anymore Just a whistle and a glow From twenty-seven years ago [Bridge] Time is just a heavy box Hidden under woolen socks I’m breathing in the cedar scent Wondering where the summers went Everything feels soft and strange In a world that had to change But the plastic stays the same Whispering my childhood name [Verse] I put the ring upon my thumb Feeling slightly deaf and dumb How can something made of gold Feel so cheap when you grow old? But this neon green is light Guiding me through the attic night A little piece of being small Pinned against the wooden wall [Chorus] Plastic rings and neon things The kind of joy a cereal brings Tucked away beneath the floor I don't need much anymore Just a whistle and a glow From twenty-seven years ago [Post-Chorus] (Ooh, the neon glow) (Ooh, twenty years ago) [Break] [Outro]
