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 25

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 25

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
