Neighborhood threat

Down where your paint is cracking
Look down your backstairs buddy
Somebody´s living there and
He don´t really feel the weather
And he don´t share your pleasures
No he don´t share your pleasures
Look at his eyes
Did you see his crazy eyes
You´re so surprised he don´t run to catch your ash
Everybody always wants to kiss your trash
You can´t help him
Nobody can
Now that he knows
There´s nothing to get
Will you still place your bet
On the neighbourhood threat
Somewhere a baby´s bleeding
Somewhere a mother´s needing
Outside a boy is lying
But mostly he is crying
And he just shouts in anger
You´ll find him interesting
Look at his eyes
Did you see his crazy eyes
You´re so surprised he doesn´t build for you
Everybody always wants to run with you
Look down your backstairs buddy
Somebody´s living there and
He don´t really feel the weather
And he don´t share your pleasures
No he don´t share your pleasures
Look at his eyes
Did you see his crazy eyes
You´re so surprised he don´t run to catch your ash
Everybody always wants to kiss your trash
You can´t help him
Nobody can
Now that he knows
There´s nothing to get
Will you still place your bet
On the neighbourhood threat
Somewhere a baby´s bleeding
Somewhere a mother´s needing
Outside a boy is lying
But mostly he is crying
And he just shouts in anger
You´ll find him interesting
Look at his eyes
Did you see his crazy eyes
You´re so surprised he doesn´t build for you
Everybody always wants to run with you
