"One Man's Ceiling Is Another Man's Floor" lyrics

There's been some hard feelings here
About some words that were said
Been some hard feelings here and what is more
There's been a bloody purple nose
And some bloody purple clothes
That were messing up the lobby floor

It's just apartment house rules
So all you 'partment house fools

Remember one man's ceiling
Is another man's floor
One man's ceiling is another man's floor

There's been some strange goings on
And some folks have come and gone
Like the elevator man don't work no more
I heard a racket in the hall
And I thought I heard a call
But I never opened up my door

It's just apartment house sense
It's like apartment house rents

Remember one man's ceiling is another man's floor
I'll tell you one man's ceiling is another man's floor

There's an alley in the back of my building
Where some people congregate in shame
I was walking with my dogs
And the night was black with smog
When I thought I heard somebody call my name

Oh...
Remember one man's ceiling is another man's floor
Goddamn
One man's ceiling is another man's floor
