The Ex (Punk Band) - Grimm Stories lyrics
[The Ex Punk Band - Grimm Stories lyrics]
So you say your neighbour on the second floor
Keeps a horse in the room above
He slaughters sheep and lots of chicken
And the blood keeps dripping
From his balcony into the street
And you can't go out without wet feet
Pelts and meat are hung up to dry
And you get visit's from rats and flies
Sure you didn’t mean to throw him off
You were just cleaning the staircase hall
Do you really believe the tale you just told
Aren't you just looking for a scape-goat?
Down with that arm and that right-wing shit
Your ideas stink as much as your armpit
You say your neighbours on the third floor
Are living off family allowance alone
Which they receive for thеir 42 children
Including their cousins and camels back homе
And at night all their two year olds
Are messing with your car
You even had to buy a dog
To keep them out of your home
Of course you didn't mean to shoot them
You were just cleaning your rifle
Is it really true that
Your neighbour next door
Smells as awful as his cooking
And that your apartment fell in value
Life ain’t safe here anymore
Your wife won't go out on her own
She'll get molested by his sort of man
It's normal for them, you guess
They're used to have a lot of women
Certainly you didn't mean to stab him
You were just cleaning your knife
Sure, you don't mean to send them back
You just want your country to be clean
But after all the dirt I saw you throw
I can't imagine what you mean
Still you say you are no racist
And you feel no such thing as hate
And with all your misplaced accusations
You still do not discriminate
Of course you don’t mean to
Lay the blame on them
Aren’t you just cleaning your own conscience?
Keeps a horse in the room above
He slaughters sheep and lots of chicken
And the blood keeps dripping
From his balcony into the street
And you can't go out without wet feet
Pelts and meat are hung up to dry
And you get visit's from rats and flies
Sure you didn’t mean to throw him off
You were just cleaning the staircase hall
Do you really believe the tale you just told
Aren't you just looking for a scape-goat?
Down with that arm and that right-wing shit
Your ideas stink as much as your armpit
You say your neighbours on the third floor
Are living off family allowance alone
Which they receive for thеir 42 children
Including their cousins and camels back homе
And at night all their two year olds
Are messing with your car
You even had to buy a dog
To keep them out of your home
Of course you didn't mean to shoot them
You were just cleaning your rifle
Is it really true that
Your neighbour next door
Smells as awful as his cooking
And that your apartment fell in value
Life ain’t safe here anymore
Your wife won't go out on her own
She'll get molested by his sort of man

And with all your misplaced accusations
