"Neighborhood Welcome Committee"

about

If you have ever moved into a neighborhood with obnoxious, nosy neighbors you may be able to relate.

lyrics

You bought cookies
sprinkled with questions
You fertilized flowers
With the gossip you'd grow

My house warming party
Equaled interrogation
The realtor's flyer
Didn't mention barbed wire

Neighborhood welcoming committee
Investigates residents to the city
With narrow minded curiosity
A lack of security makes it seem a pity

I was seriously sermoned
On where your grass grows
You placed an ugly rock
For a no mow zone

While screaming at your wife
At ten in the evening
I could have called the popo
But I left it alone

Neighborhood welcoming committee
Investigates residents to the city
With narrow minded curiosity
A lack of security makes it seem a pity

So they call you a mayor
Maybe you'll move out, sooner than later
