There Goes the Neighborhood
They don't bend
They don't break
They're immune
To their mistakes
They don't mix
With our kind
Any day now
They might unwind
They don't dress
Like we do
They talk funny
When spoken to
I've never seen them
At our church
They may be Pagans
Or even worse
There goes the neighborhood
Lovely neighborhood
There goes the neighborhood
Well I don't my kids
Playing with their kids
Don't get me wrong
We're not prejudiced
It's just that they get those rare diseases
That boy next door
He does what he pleases
There goes the neighborhood
Lovely neighborhood
There goes the neighborhood
There it goes
No one's right
No one's wrong
But someone should go back where they belong
If God created
All men as one
I guess his work
Was never really done
There goes the neighborhood
Lovely neighborhood
There goes the neighborhood
There goes the neighborhood
Lovely neighborhood
There goes the neighborhood
They don't break
They're immune
To their mistakes
They don't mix
With our kind
Any day now
They might unwind
They don't dress
Like we do
They talk funny
When spoken to
I've never seen them
At our church
They may be Pagans
Or even worse
There goes the neighborhood
Lovely neighborhood
There goes the neighborhood
Well I don't my kids
Playing with their kids
Don't get me wrong
We're not prejudiced
It's just that they get those rare diseases
That boy next door
He does what he pleases
There goes the neighborhood
Lovely neighborhood
There goes the neighborhood
There it goes
No one's right
No one's wrong
But someone should go back where they belong
If God created
All men as one
I guess his work
Was never really done
There goes the neighborhood
Lovely neighborhood
There goes the neighborhood
There goes the neighborhood
Lovely neighborhood
There goes the neighborhood
