There Goes The Neighborhood - Lyrics by Sheryl Crow


Lyrics
Hey let's party let's get down let's turn the radio on
This is the meltdown
Get out the camera take a picture
The drag queens and the freaks
Are all out on the town
And cowboy jane's in bed
Nursing a swollen head
Sunshine sally and peter ustanov
Don't like the scene anyhow
I dropped acid on a saturday night
Just to see what the fuss was about
Now there goes the neighborhood
The photo chick made to look sickly
Is standing in her panties in the shower
She plays the guitar in the bathroom
While the police dust her mother's plastic flowers
And schooboy john's in jail
Making a killing through the u s mail
Sunshine sally and peter ustanov
Don't like the scene anyhow
I dropped acid on a saturday night
Just to see what the fuss was about
There goes the neighborhood
There goes the neighborhood
This is the movie of the screenplay of the book about a girl who meets a junkie
The messenger gets shot down just for carrying the message to a flunkie
We can't be certain who the villans are ’cuz everyone's so pretty
But the afterparty's sure to be a wing ding as it moves into your city
Sunshine sally and peter ustanov
Don't like the scene anyhow
I dropped acid on a saturday night
Just to see what the stink was about
Sunshine sally and peter ustanov
Don't like the scene anyhow
I dropped acid on a saturday night
Just to see what the fuss was about
There goes the neighborhood
There goes the neighborhood
