I can hear my neighbors making love upstairs Their love is rattling my tables and my chairs Keeping me awake The love they make it's keeping me awake While I'm just trying to get some sleep On the ground floor I don't mind my neighbor making love upstairs Cause I was once the lover making all my neighbors scared You and me Thundering the floorboards with our power and our force While they're just trying to get some sleep On the ground floor I can hear my neighbors making love upstairs Their love is amplifying all of my despair 'Cause I was once a lover Now I have to listen to my neighbors Making love upstairs From down on the ground floor From down on the ground floor From down on the ground floor
[Musical Interlude] In this city all the humans live in layers I got people down the hall and down the stairs We all move in and out and live our lives In stacks and rows and pairs And try to find someone with whom we can share it I can hear my neighbors making love upstairs Wish I didn't have to be so well informed of their affairs But if I have to hear them doing something At least they're having fun Sometimes I forget that all of us are just human 'Cause we're all stacked in rows and columns And if one of them should fall on me My neighbors making love upstairs would crush me I'm down on the ground floor I'm down on the ground floor I'm down on the ground floor
