Lyrics: Neighbor

Sittin in your front yard, drinkin lemonade

Suburban life, a pretty wife, you think youve got it made

But you dont know, whats in store, for you and your family

Im movin in, right next door, wont you welcome me?

Its a beautiful day in the neighborhood

And I hope I didnt ruin your day

Wont you be my neighbor?


I brought my life, my ugly wife, my dirty dog with fleas

My kids a punk, and Im a drunk, this Im sure youll see

Yeah you dont know, what its like, to live in misery

Welcome to, home sweet hell, dissatisfaction guaranteed

Its a beautiful day in the neighborhood

And if I could I surely would

Invite you in and say

Wont you be my neighbor?

Wont you be my neighbor?

Wont you be my neighbor?

Wont you be my neighbor?


Cmon I dont think youll find

A place to live in peace of mind

Youre gonna live in misery

When youre livin next to me

Its a beautiful day in the neighborhood...aaaah

Wont you be my, wont you be my funky(fuckin) neighbor?


Well I drink, and I stink, I smoke, yeah Im a joke

I try all night and day to get a piece of the action, a-haa

And you should know by now youre never gonna forget, a-aaa

Now I know just what youre thinkin

It could be out n youre drinkin

So dont you knock it until you try it

It could be you in a little while

I hope I didnt ruin your day


Cool ending bit

Its a beautiful day in the neighborhood

And I dig your wife, she sure is good

Its a beautiful day in the neighboorhood... ha, ha, ha
