lyrics

SOMETHING FUNNY GOING ON

I thought I heard a door slam, I thought I heard a cry
I heard a dog bark but I don't know why
Keep yourself to yourself (to yourself) 'cause it's understood
There's something funny going on in the neighbourhood

There's things in the shadows, hiding out of sight
There's things that go bump in the middle of the night
Keep yourself to yourself (to yourself) 'cause it's understood
There's something funny going on in the neighbourhood

There's something in the water, something in the air
You gotta wear a mask if you're going anywhere
Your might lose your direction, you might lose your hair
Natural selection can be so unfair
Keep yourself to yourself (to yourself) 'cause it's understood
There's something funny going on in the neighbourhood

I thought that I was living in a quiet cul-de-sac
But this estate we're in is giving me a heart attack
Searching for the light; examining the cracks
I've got my nose to the grindstone and a monkey on my back
Keep yourself to yourself (to yourself) 'cause it's understood
There's something funny going on in the neighbourhood

Better get out while the getting's good
There's something funny going on in the neighbourhood

Dealing with danger in a worried nation
Feeling like a stranger on a strange vacation
We're circling the plughole of a dirty basin
Running for a train that left the station
Keep yourself to yourself (to yourself) 'cause it's understood
There's something funny going on in the neighbourhood

Better get out while the getting's good
There's something funny going on in the neighbourhood
