Neighborhood Threat
---------------------------------

     
Down where your paint is cracking
     Look down your backstairs buddy
     Somebodies living there and
     He don't really feel the weather
     And he don't share your pleasures
     No, he don't share your pleasures
     Did you see his eyes?
     Did you see his crazy eyes?
     And you're so surprised he doesn't run to catch your ash
     Everybody always wants to kiss your trash
     And you can't help him, no one can
     And now that he knows
     There's nothing to get
     Will you still place your bet
     Against the Neighbourhood Threat?


     Somewhere a baby's feeding
     Somewhere a mother's needing
     Outside her boy is trying
     But mostly he is crying
     Did you see his eyes?
     Did you see his crazy eyes?
     And you're so surprised he doesn't run to catch your ash
     Everybody always wants to kiss your trash
     But you can't help him, no one can
     And now that he knows
     There's nothing to get
     Not in this place
     Not in your face
     Will you still place your bet
     Against the Neighbourhood Threat? (Repeat)
