- The Neighbors Lyrics
Sister say a prayer for us one we learned from nuns and
such
I won't believe not a word you speak just make it sweet
to hear
Let's pour wine in coffee cups and drive around the
neighborhood
And shine the headlights on houses until all the news
is good
Oh no! What would your mother say?
Oh no! What would your father do?
Oh no! What would the neighbors think?
Oh no!
How am I supposed to sleep? Roaming blackouts on the
streets
Oh not a word, not another speech, we'll run the
headlights down
These kids are foaming at the mouth, psychotropic
capricorns
Tomorrow's some kind of Strangerland where all the news
is good
Oh no! What would your mother say?
Oh no! What would your father do?
Oh no! What would the neighbors think?
Oh no! If they only knew, knew
How can Monday be alright, then on Tuesday lose my
mind?
Tomorrow's some kind of stranger who I'm not supposed
to see
Oh no! What would your mother say?
Oh no! What would your father do?
Oh no! What would the neighbors think?
Oh no! If they only knew, knew
such
I won't believe not a word you speak just make it sweet
to hear
Let's pour wine in coffee cups and drive around the
neighborhood
And shine the headlights on houses until all the news
is good
Oh no! What would your mother say?
Oh no! What would your father do?
Oh no! What would the neighbors think?
Oh no!
How am I supposed to sleep? Roaming blackouts on the
streets
Oh not a word, not another speech, we'll run the
headlights down
These kids are foaming at the mouth, psychotropic
Tomorrow's some kind of Strangerland where all the news
is good
Oh no! What would your mother say?
Oh no! What would your father do?
Oh no! What would the neighbors think?
Oh no! If they only knew, knew
How can Monday be alright, then on Tuesday lose my
mind?
Tomorrow's some kind of stranger who I'm not supposed
to see
Oh no! What would your mother say?
Oh no! What would your father do?
Oh no! What would the neighbors think?
Oh no! If they only knew, knew
