Neon Lyrics

Cover art for Neon lyrics by John Mayer

this song is simply about a college-aged atlanta (peachtree st reference) party girl who cant be tied down. these kind of girls will drive you nuts if you let them and there are plenty of them in atlanta(i speak from personal experience). she is boy crazy and goes out about 6 nights a week (classes be damned). he wants to tell her to slow down and not to get so fucked up all the time and to just hang out with him everynow and then. he wants to ask her to not get so hammered that she shacks up with a new guy everynight. but the problem is, he cant tell her this stuff because he knows that showing that kind of emotion would run off a girl like this. so he keeps quiet and continues to put up with her shit because he likes her too much and he "would take her any way he (i) can."
