Joe Jackson - In Every Dream Home (a Nightmare) lyrics

The guy who lives upstairs Is an actor so they say, or maybe worse They say he changed his name 'cause someone with the same name made it first His girlfriend come to stay We hear her screams and think that they rehearse So maybe it's a play Or maybe someone's really getting hurt Look round every home town Every nice house - every fair deal Every good job - every square meal In every dream home A nightmare The girl who lives next door Is a model so they say though i'm not sure She never seems to work Though clothes she wears suggest that she's not poor She seems to be well known With man friends always coming to her door But they don't look her type And she don't look the type to be a who*e Look round every home town Every nice house - every fair deal Every good job - every square meal In every dream home A nightmare
