Apt. 25 by Ring 13 Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 1984

I'm sitting here in my apt. building spying into other people lives
I've got my binoculars focused on apt. 25
I see little girls, I see older men, I see people getting fried
And then I hear those sirens and see the police come by

But now I'm sitting here and I'm thinking what I've done
This peeping tom life isn't always fun
But there's just one thing that gives me hope
And oh no that's not smoking dope
It's knowing apt. 25, is always there for me

Well they though I'd learned my lesson well I guess I fooled them all
Cause I'm walking to my building now I'm running through the halls
And I look outside my window and much to my surprise
I see them at it one more time, bring joy back to my eyes

But now I realize that I must give it up
Cause now I'm back here in this rut
Cause I can't do this all my life
Cause I'd probably end it with a knife
And suicide, is not what I want right now
Well now I've got a wife, and now we've got some kids
And he just found my binoculars and guess what he done did
He went looking through the window and that reminded me of me
He said "daddy daddy daddy I just watched a man go pee"

So why must I hide my head, maybe I'd been better off dead
But I can't take it again
But just like Harry said, my boy was just like me
