Who Is Your Neighbor
Recently a brand new neighbor moved next door
Sad ‘cause we wouldn’t see the old one anymore
But I baked cookies and on his door gave a knock
What happened next sure gave my heart a shock
He was wearing a big mask, the Halloween kind
I must admit he nearly scared me out of my mind
He pulled off that hideous thing and gave me a smile
Then invited me in and we laughed and talked awhile
Turns out he brought laughter and joy to our street
One of the funniest men it’s been our pleasure to meet
