Neighbor lyrics
by Pinegrove
[Verse 1]
Little insect upside down and trying
To right-side-up itself, felt by my right foot tapping
Squirming mechanism and it spins and tips vertical
But in my alien eye I can see he is beautiful
[Chorus]
Well, I love my neighbor
I love his determined behavior
If it were me I probably
Might have just stayed there
[Verse 2]
Mid-sized opossum in front of my house dying
Collided with a vehicle driving it out through the lightning
She falls down softly in the middle of the lane incoming
And it's clearly inc*mbent on me to run out to her and do something
So I approach her there and I'm suddenly squirming
And I'm scared and I'm tryin' to do right but I guess I desecrate everything
[Chorus]
Well, I love my neighbor
I loved her courageous behavior
A ray now shines out of her mouth
And it points back to nature
[Verse 3]
Morning gosling echoing wide around me
A V migrating down easy to a better climate
A startling shot rings out and now the geese are all screaming
The marksman’s adrenaline's up as he stands up smiling
[Chorus]
Well, I love my neighbor but
Don't understand his behavior
I love that bird
But I don't ever want to take her
