Respectable Street [Urgh! A Music War]

[Intro] [Bridge]

It's in the order of their hedgerows

It's in the way their curtains open and close

It's in the look they give you down their nose

All part of decency's jigsaw, I suppose

[Chorus]

Heard the neighbor slam his car door

Don't he realize this is Respectable Street?

What d'you think he bought that car for?

'Cause he realized this is Respectable Street

[Verse 1]

Now they talk about abortions

In cosmopolitan proportions to their daughters

As they speak of contraception

And immaculate receptions on their portable

Sony Entertainment Centers

[Chorus]

Heard the neighbor slam his car door

Don't he realize this is Respectable Street?

What d'you think he bought that car for?

'Cause he realized this is Respectable Street

[Verse 2]

Now she speaks about diseases

And which sex position pleases best her old man

Avon lady fills the creases

When she manages to squeeze in past the caravans

That never move from their front gardens

[Chorus]

Heard the neighbor slam his car door

Don't he realize this is Respectable Street?

What d'you think he bought that car for?

'Cause he realized this is Respectable Street

[Bridge]

It's in the order of their hedgerows

It's in the way their curtains open and close

It's in the look they give you down their nose

All part of decency's jigsaw, I suppose

[Verse 3]

Sunday church and they look fetching

Saturday night, saw him retching over our fence

Bang the wall for me to turn down

I can see them with their stern frown as they dispense

The kind of look that says they're perfect

[Chorus]

Heard the neighbor slam his car door

Don't he realize this is Respectable Street?

What d'you think he bought that car for?

'Cause he realized this is Respectable Street

[Outro]

He realized this is Respectable Street

He realized this is Respectable Street

He realized this is Respectable Street
