Letra

Let me tell y'all what it's like Watchin' idol on a Friday night In a house built safe and sound On Indian burial ground Sham on We drive our cars every day To and from work both ways So we make just enough to pay To drive our cars to work each day, hey-ey We're rockin' the suburbs Around the block just one more time We're rockin' the suburbs 'Cause I can't tell which house is mine We're rockin' the suburbs We part the shades and face facts They got better lookin' fescue Right across the cul-de-sac Hotwheels take risin' stars Get rich quick seminars Soap opera magazines 40 thousand watt nativity scenes Don't freak about the smoke alarm Mom left the TV dinner on Yet we're rockin' the suburbs From "Family Feud" to Chevy Chase We're rockin' the suburbs We numb the muscles in our face We're rockin' the suburbs Feed the dog and mow the lawn Watchin' mommy balance the checks While daddy juggles credit cards Hi, sorry to bother you The name's Bill I live just across the street Yeah, that's right over there No, no, not that house The one next to it with the extra flower bed Oh, and here's all your papers from the last few days They were just piling up on the driveway Where the whole neighborhood could see them Not that, that's a problem of course But that and the grass being a little overgrown Might give someone the impression that you were out of town And you wouldn't want that I've got to be going shortly to a little class I've been attending I just No, no, no, no, not pottery or anything like that it's uh... An anger management class actually And speaking of that very class They've been emphasising finding some common ground With people before you confront them To avoid becoming violent, you know? Well, actually, we do have a few things in common Here could you take these papers They're getting my suit wet And as I was say We do live on the same cul-de-sac That's common ground And I believe we actually have the same house plan Except the reverse, your garage is on the left and mine's on the... No, it wasn't me that dialled 911 at 6:31p.m, Wednesday About your son's noisy rock band Anyway, it's about your dog And of course about our garbage And the neighbor's garbage can No, I'm sorry; it is your dog Who's been strewing garbage around the block And I have digital evidence complete with red eye reduction Which I will e-mail to you to prove that it is in fact your dog Now I have to warn you that I have a black belt in in karate too And I'm certainly don't mind using it if necessary No, not on you man, on your stinking dog We're rockin' the suburbs Everything we need is here We're rockin' the suburbs But it wasn't here last year We're rockin' the suburbs You'll never know when we are gone Because the timer lights come on And turn the cricket noises on each night Yeah, yeah, we're rockin' the suburbs Yeah, yeah, we're rockin' the suburbs
