Who’s got the keys to the house next door?
We used to be friends but they don’t live there no more
So many go in and never come out
Their names on the bills, their mould on the grout
Through shut blinds in the evening
That silhouette could be
Holding anything at all
I dread to think what they believe
If I could just make someone happy
I could brighten up their day
I know the second I leave, they’ll say
He was a strange neighbour
We got along alright
He was a strange neighbour
We said hello sometimes
Funny new couple in at number twelve
Right next to the church, but they look like Hell
The pipes are all leaking and the floorboards squeak
But you’d never know, it’s all smiles on this street
Through locked doors in the morning
Sunlight never seems to reach
A countenance that’s so appalling
It makes leaves abandon trees
If I could just make someone smile
I could brighten up their day
I know the second I leave, they’ll say
He was a strange neighbour
We got along alright
He was a strange neighbour
We said hello sometimes
