Where the walking wounded join the clown parade
Trailing down the block like a the lost brigade
Where the easy gamble and the roughest trade
Walk cheek to cheek like a hand unplayed
In my neighborhood
My neighborhood

Where you know for certain who made the grade
By the ones who left and the ones who stayed
The ones who laughed and the ones who prayed
And wore their rags to the masquerade
In my neighborhood
My neighborhood

In my neighborhood it's all good
But don't thing about more than you think you should
In my neighborhood
My neighborhood

So they can shake a cup when they meet your eyes
And you can look away like the past applies
As to what they've earned and how many tries
'Cause you know their game but they know your lies
In my neighborhood
My neighborhood

In my neighborhood its okay
Careful don't give too much away
In my neighborhood
My neighborhood

Hard luck and barely dragging
Down low and way too high
Sweet things their features sagging
Quick sale to make a buy
Long nights and no tomorrow
And now the light of day
Shines down on all they borrowed
And all that they gave away

Red bandana and the wrap around shades
Breaking into the line to lead the parade
Won't live to know the mistake he's made
Trying to make his way with a five inch blade
In my neighborhood
My neighborhood

You've got your poor and hungry and your low and mean
You've got your high and horny better left unseen
All walking around in a fever dream
All the wasted life like a cheese gone green
In my neighborhood
My neighborhood

In my neighborhood it's alright
If you've got yourself a room tonight
In my neighborhood
My neighborhood

In my neighborhood its OK
Careful don't give too much away
In my neighborhood
My neighborhood

In my neighborhood its all good
But don't think about more than you think you should
In my neighborhood
Oh yes in my neighborhood
