Your Neighborhood Lyrics[Verse 1]
You look out your window
Out at your neighborhood
You don’t know if it might
You don’t know it if could
It’d be such a shame if this whole place burnt to a crisp
[Verse 2]
Turn back into a child when you
Smell the fresh-cut lawn
Feels like you’re all the way back
Where you first come from
Run ’round til you’re tired just like it’s what you used to do
[Chorus]
But oh, how the people have changed
Oh, how they stayed just the same
And the air that I breathed since I was a kid
Has gotten me high on a small-town wish
[Verse 3]
There’s plenty of dangers
In the theaters and the books
So burn all the witches
Lock up all the crooks
You wonder where the Hell it could have all gone wrong
[Verse 4]
Still wake up in the morning
Wincing at the clock
Neighbor still walks the same damn dog
’Round and ’round the block
I swear to God the water’s fine, it’s just a touch of lead
[Chorus]
But oh, you know we’re doing just fine
You know it’s been this way all the time
A place of transgressions erased from the maps
Never again am I ever coming back
[Guitar solo]
[Bridge]
Oh, ain’t it a shame
Oh, ain’t that a shame
