All I see is imitation
   And there's no earth beneath my feet.
   There are no trees or fields in front of me
   Only slabs of concrete.
   Skyscrapers reaching up to the clouds,
   Don't give the moon a chance to shine,
   And I've got imitation moonlight
   Standing underneath the neon sign.
  
   Is it real or just illusion?
   Can there be day-time when it's night?
   Is it merely my delusion
   Or are my senses telling me lies.
   Is it just hallucination?
   Have I been drinking too much wine?
   I don't know if it's day or night,
   When I'm underneath the neon sign.
   Underneath the neon sign.
  
   Electronic nature made by man with robots in mind.
   Big city lights guide my way into the night, darkness shines
   When I'm standing underneath the neon sign.
  
   If there isn't any sunshine
   We'll sunbathe by the neon sign
   And if we can't see any stars at night
   We'll sit and watch the traffic lights.
   If there isn't any day-time
   I've got an imitation dawn,
   I've got a simulated sunshine
   Standing underneath the neon sign.
  
   Is it only an illusion?
   Have I been drinking too much wine?
   Can there be day-time when it's night
   Underneath the neon sign.
   Underneath the neon sign.
   Is it mother nature
   Playing tricks with my eyes
   For darkness shines
   When I'm standing underneath the neon sign.
