For fear my landlord will come and ring my bell

How much more does she think we will pay
[Chorus]

No more flop house no more fun

It was a sunday afternoon

We were having a barbeque

We were listening to Louis Prima

And drinking Meisterbrau

And wasn't a lazy cow

Said it would only take one more
Bb A Ab
Phone call from my whiny neighbor

Maybe someday when I'm jaded

9 to 5 at a job I hate
G B F C G B F C
I'll come home and harass my neighbors too
G B F C
But I'd have a strategy
G B F C
And catch them when the rent is late
G B F C G B F C
And all the other bills are overdue
D C F
After all this is the neighborly way
[Chorus]

We don't want to live here anywaaaay

The lawn is dead

Dogs and cats are stinking everywhere
G E
She said we had crazy parties every night
A Ab
The yard is littered with bottles and cans

Skateboards and bikes

She didn't get bent and raise the rent

We only got a note
Bb A Ab
In 30 days we'll get the old heave ho
