There Goes the Neighborhood by Wombology Lyrics
[Verse 1: Sickly Sid]
One small dream I had a long time ago
I remembered a soldier living in the depths below
He had just ran out of his supply of ammo
And just removed his right ankle, poked by crossbow
"Welcome to my home, my little space of repose
In here I stock what's left of my DIY cargo
Don't stay here too long, the trauma doesn't go too thin
It creeps into your flow, in-depths itself into your skin
A few years ago this summer, I lost my trusty lunchpin
He brought me out of my troubles, the same ones grabbed him in
But I don't need him, look at me living in my cave
I know if I moved into that, it wouldn't do me no good"
{Refrain]
There goes the neighborhood
[Verse 2: Mickey Menace]
A little motherfucker trying to take me down
Trying to remove my medals, trying to take my crown
To escape the late great war for my sake
I didn't expect peace to have so much hate
Preaching for the end, for something new and better
But when someone else gets it, he writes an angry letter
I never ever thought that I could change my future
But a minuteman has a job to make me a loser
A booster-seat for the baby who can't take change
A strange way of living, living in a damp cave
Can't bear to see, can't bear to watch
So he looks at me and he says
[Refrain]
