Neighbours Lyrics - Singles - Quantum Jump

(one day mothers fences were blown down in the wind) 

Oh yes we've lived on the fourth 

Since you've lived on the fifth 

Must be about nine years by now 

We've been passing on the stairs 

Yes, well we've noticed your friends 

We've heard you argue some nights 

Smelt your meals through the floor 

Never known you by your first names 

Just a mister and missis 

No children to play 

Make us bang on the ceiling 

What a surprise when you called to say 

"Oh well we're having a party 

- Come on over tonight"... 

We're neighbours (pass your key) 

Living over you, living over me - 

Well we dressed up so fine 

Rang the doorbell at nine 

Your eyes were on fire 

When you opened the door 

Your husband was... hazy 

You offered us grass 

Well of course we refused 

When I went to the loo 

Tripped on the carpet 

And was joined by a few 

Limbo ladies like touching 

So they felt me up and down 

Laid me out on the floor 

Till I cried out for less 

I came back to the sofa 

And there was no one around 

Cos you'd stolen my wife 

To play games 

With two men and a snake 

Hey mam, what's happening to me 

mam etc. 

I was hungry and hot 

Couldn't see through the smoke 

You were wonderful neighbours 

And we were your joke 

We're neighbours (pass your key) 

Living over you, living over me 

Crossed the landing alone 

Made me some toast 

Think I'll buy 

A country cottage with a moat 

...Well I wasn't rehearsed 

Think I'll buy... Limbo ladies like touching 

Think I'll buy a country cottage with a moat 

Limbo ladies like touching, settle down - 

(Limbo cottage with ladies in the moat)
