I'Ve Got To Do Something About My Neighbor
I’ve Got To Do Something About My Neighbor
By Elton Camp
I’m watching the guy across the street
His wife, it appears, he often does beat
And it wouldn’t at all be a surprise
If, if asked, he will deny it with lies
In the case of a man that low & mean,
I feel morally obligated to intervene
I’m going down there, gun in hand,
“Quit doing that stuff,” I’ll demand
Though last time I got into a family spat
All of them showed contempt for doing that
Even the wife that I was trying to protect
Joined with her mate and I was decked
But this time, it won’t turn out that way
So I’m going to take action without delay
There is no way I can allow this to pass
For I think he’s also using poison gas
