The Tenants
The walls were thin
The music was loud
Drowned by the whiskey and gin
They stomped upstairs with heavy boots
They made me shudder from tip to root.
They were a noisy bunch
With a Dog that barked all day long
And fell off to sleep when the party was on
Imagine my plight we had a big fight
They laughed with glee and taunted me
They called the cops and did not relent
When I asked them for the rent
They were my tenants who sealed my fate
They lived on the floor right above me
They were the famous Norton Family.
