There Goes The Neighborhood

What is this I see?
They're in the house across the street.
A young couple just moving in.
They're looking good, I hope they don't want friends.
They're holding hands and they're locking lips.
Hope my baby - she don't see this.
Next thing you know, I'm taking walks in the rain.
My neighborhood'll never be the same.

There goes the neighborhood.
If he can do it, she'll expect I should.
A dozen roses, and he loves her cat.
Now she'll be wanting me to act like that.
He treats that woman like she was a queen.
Me - I never miss a football game.
Next to nothin', I was lookin' good.
There goes the neighborhood.

Would you look, he's workin' out in the cold.
I'm makin' changes by remote control.
Now she'll have me workin' round this house.
If he don't stop it, I'll have to move out.
He takes her out in that red Corvette.
Makes me sick, I bet it ain't his yet.
He's writin' love letters, rubbin' her feet.
They're makin' love is so hard on me.

There goes the neighborhood.
If he can do it, she'll expect I should.
A dozen roses, and he loves her cat.
Now she'll be wanting me to act like that.
He treats that woman like she was a queen.
Me - I never miss a football game.
Next to nothin', I was lookin' good.
There goes the neighborhood.

He treats that woman like she was a queen.
Me - I never miss a football game.
Next to nothin', I was lookin' good.
There goes the neighborhood.
Next to nothin', I was lookin' good.
There goes the neighborhood.
