There Goes the Neighborhood Lyrics

Hey let's party
Let's get down
Let's turn the radio on
This is the meltdown

Get out the camera
Take a picture
The drag queens and the freaks
Are all out on the town

And cowboy Jim's in bed
Nursing a swollen head

[Chorus]
Sunshine Sally and Peter Ustanov
Don't like the scene anyhow
I dropped acid on a Saturday night
Just to see what the fuss was about
Well there goes the neighborhood

The photo chick made to look sickly
Is standing in her panties in the shower
She plays the guitar in the bathroom
While the police dust her mother's plastic flowers
And Schoolboy John's in jail
Making a killing through the U.S. mail

[Chorus]

This is the movie of the screenplay
Of the book about a girl who meets a junkie.
The messenger gets shot down
Just for carrying the message to a flunkie.
We can't be certain who the villans are 'cause everyone's so pretty
But the after-party's sure to be a wing-ding as it moves into your
City

[Chorus]

There goes the neighborhood
There goes the neighborhood
