"Mr. Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore" lyrics

Well, they came and they corrupted
And they took what was theirs
Your sorrow and your pity
Leave 'em upstairs
You might think that it matters
But it ain't like before
Mr. Alice doesn't live here anymore

Where that old drugstore was
There's now a museum
Everyone's changed
You can't hardly see 'em
All the piano players
Have gone off to war
Mr;. Alice doesn't live here no, no more

Now the chimney is rotten
And the wallpapers's torn
The garden in the back
Won't grow no more corn
Now the windows are boarded with paper mache
Even the dog just ran away

Judy Collins went downstairs
With a roll of film
Jukebox blastin', bloody Mary's
On the window sill
His sister and his brother
Are waiting by the door
But that old maggot doesn't live here anymore

He don't live here no more
He don't live here anymore
He don't live here no more
He don't live here anymore
He don't live here no more
He don't live here anymore
