"There Goes The Neighbourhood" lyrics

"There Goes The Neighbourhood"

Well, there goes the neighbourhood
Where I learned to drive
Dreams of an older boy
That I kept inside

Well, there goes the neighbourhood
There's blood on the streets
Katrina's a passing thought
As I fall asleep

Well, there goes the neighbourhood
With every misstep
I said it's feeling good
That's when she left

But it's Kool-Aid, you take your time
And it's so hard being twenty-five

Some shitty foreplay
With a divorcée
I need to figure it out
If there's a good way
To leave a bad taste
I think I'd know it by now

I'm waiting for my motorcade
But nothing ever goes my way
I stumble through the neighbourhood now
The city just abandons me
My whole pathetic fantasy
That maybe I won't let them all down

I wanna figure it out
I wanna figure it out
I wanna figure it out
I think I need to lie down...

Babe, you take your time
If it's so hard being twenty-five
A brand-new way to leave the world behind
A new way to leave it all behind...

Well, there goes the neighbourhood
Where David OD'd
I could have sworn you said
You wished it was me
