lirik lagu ed's redeeming qualities - falls church, virginia

i lived with roaches in falls church, virginia
where the neighbors had nothing to say
where the mean guy upstairs would just as soon k!ll you
as tell you the time or the name of the day
and the babies ate pigeons, threw cats out the windows
while their mothers just cooked and forgave
old men watched while little girls jiggled
when they whirled and they twirled, on a dead mailman’s grave

some things you do for the love of a friend
some things you do for your mother
sometime you sing just to cheer up the kids
cause you don’t have a son or a daughter
and the time that you’re living is a big waste of life
seems pointless to work, steal, or borrow
your last friend, a dog, snuck off in the fog
and yesterday feels like tomorrow

i moved up north to dover, new hampshire
where the friendly neighbors had nice things to say
where the woman next door would just as soon love you
as tell you the time or the name of the day
but the skunks had rabies, and the squirrels ate the babies
while the mothers just sat in new shiny cars
old men slept while little girls wiggled
while they whirled and they twirled, under new england’s stars
and now i live in a lane, on a highway
where i don’t have neighbors, and kids do not play
and the cars beside me, and the cars behind me
they’re all going somewhere where they don’t want to stay
and the babies eat plastic, throw food out the windows
and the mothers just drive, they drive to forget
and old men die, and little girls giggle
and they won’t look my way, not on a ten~dollar bet

some things you do for the love of a friend
some things you do for your mother
sometimes you sing just to cheer up the kids
cause you don’t have a son or a daughter
and the time that you’re living is a big waste of life
seems pointless to work, steal, or borrow
your last friend, a dog, snuck off in the fog
and yesterday sounds, sounds just like tomorrow
