Neighborhood #2 (Laika)
Alexander! - our older brother! - set out for! - a great adventure! -
he tore our images - out of his pictures! - he tore our names out - of
all his letters!
our mother shoulda...just named you laika
come on alex! you can do it! come on alex! there's nothing to it! if
you want something - don't ask for nothing! - if you want nothing -
don't ask for something!
our mother shoulda...just named you laika
it's for your own good - it's for the neighborhood
our older brother! - bit by a vampire! - for a year we caught his
tears in a cup! - and now we're gonna make you drink it! come on alex!
don't die or dry up!
our mother shoulda...just named you laika
it's for your own good - it's for the neighborhood
when daddy comes home, you'll start a fight - so the neighbors can
dance in the police disco lights
now the neighbors can dance - look at 'em dance.
