Neighbourhood Watch


Wrap yourself tightly so the rain can't touch you
Pull over the covers so the wind can't get through
I remember your dark hair scraping on your neck
Don't stand out there in the cold and wet
Our average contents don't add up to much
Neighborhood
I got friends in high places but they don't stay in touch
Neighbourhood
Your smell on the t shirt sleeping there beside me
Twenty four hours still I've seen no sleep
Have you locked all your windows bolted all the doors?
Hang up your troubles with your sickness clothes
Our average contents don't add up to much
Neighbourhood
I got friends in high places but they don't stay in touch
Neighbourhood
Welcome back to the house
It's been empty without you
And I get disconnected when I'm on my own
I look beaten and rough, I've been smoking too much
And my head's on the floor cos I've run out of luck
Our average contents don't add up to much
Neighbourhood
