THERE GOES THE NEIGHBOURHOOD (Roomful of Blues)
She just moved in, painted her house bright blue
Everybody's talking, wondering what she's gonna do
She's got long blonde hair and everything else it takes
Curious eyes watch every move she makes
I can't help thinking she's misunderstood
Oh, when people start saying,
"There goes the neighbourhood"
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Women love to gossip, men they love to look
Peeking through the blinds
While the 'phone's ringin' off the hook
All the kids laugh by and hang out after school
And they go home and tell their folks, "She's cool"
I can't help from thinking she's misunderstood
When people start saying, "There goes the neighbourhood"
Oh, when people start saying,
"There goes the neighbourhood"
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Where are the words, I use to meld
I've just got to introduce myself
I hope she's here to stay, I hope she's here for good
'Cos if she ever moves away, there goes the neighbourhood
I hope she's here to stay, I hope she's here for good
'Cos if she ever moves away, there goes the neighbourhood
If she ever moves away, there goes the neighbourhood
