Nosy Neighbor Songtext
von The Ditty Bops
Nosy Neighbor Songtext
Listen to the sound-bites of your neighbors through the paper-thin walls
Making variations on their stories, told with Southern drawls
Look into the dustbins, pick through rubbish, finding clues to bare
Pond on their discussions, noshed on muffins, torn-up paper is spare
If you value your own skin
Stop yourself from listening in
Lovelorn letters, tarred and feathered
We are on display
Private lives have all been scattered
Mystery′s gone away
Following traces for disgraces, you have crossed the line
Walking in shadows, searching secret places, it's a sign
You′ve got ears, but so have I
Listen close, as you walk by
Sticking your ears into affairs of others has a price
The stakes are higher than you think, it's time to roll the dice
Won't be so lucky this time around
You′ll disappear, not a trace to be found
Making variations on their stories, told with Southern drawls
Look into the dustbins, pick through rubbish, finding clues to bare
Pond on their discussions, noshed on muffins, torn-up paper is spare
If you value your own skin
Stop yourself from listening in
Lovelorn letters, tarred and feathered
We are on display
Private lives have all been scattered
Mystery′s gone away
Following traces for disgraces, you have crossed the line
Walking in shadows, searching secret places, it's a sign
You′ve got ears, but so have I
Listen close, as you walk by
Sticking your ears into affairs of others has a price
The stakes are higher than you think, it's time to roll the dice
Won't be so lucky this time around
You′ll disappear, not a trace to be found
