I'm Just Not That Way Inclined

IM JUST NOT THAT WAY INCLINED
Picking at my threads, hoping I will fall apart
They, cold as icicles, and really have no heart
When gossip is rife, their mumblings, I abide
Hiding behind their curtains, so, so pop-eyed
Cleaning their glasses, as not to miss a thing
Seen, I can as almost hear, their phones ring
Sheer hatred bounces off me; windows crack
Their failure at decorum; they so flamin' lack
So need to get a life, but preferable not mine
Coz I ain't you, I'm just not that way inclined

Nothing is more disgusting than nosy neighbors who try to run your life and cannot run their own.
