And now I'd like to test, my neon lights
aeroplanes have lifted the sun from the sky


Through net curtains and bay windows
your !@(% names
your crack cocaine's insane

Why'd you play that game, dear boy, at all ?

So come on, my son

use your head
it's this neighborhood


Aahaahah,
it's the neighborhood


Whoo, whoo, whoo

You moisturize me with your rain

wash me with your air, it's strange
the favorus and time I invested in you
not time enough, when time's for fools alone


I hate my life 'cause I work too hard
you hate yours 'cause you can't get a job

you're readin' books on how to live your life
when you know damn well you will survive


So come on, my son
use your head
it's this neighborhood





Aahaahah,
it's the neighborhood
Rat, a-ta-ta-tat

leave and don't come back
I know you are coming up my stairs
I'm waiting for you if you find me there

bring it on

It's a few years on and I'm still inside

compiling notes on the world outnside
I'm petrified of the news headlines
of the aeroplanes

and the neon lights

So I'll live in here until I die

I'd rather eat myself alive
than be shocked and surprised, be ostracized
when I expose all of your cruel, cruel lies


So come on, my son
use your head

it's this neighborhood

Aahaahah,

it's the neighborhood

Whoo, whoo, whoo


So come on, my son
use your head

it's this neighborhood

Aahaahah,

it's the neighborhood

Whoo, whoo, whoo
