Every night he snores
I can hear him right through my bedroom floor
The guy downstairs plays his tv loud at 2 am
When I'm trying to sleep
The guy downstairs has a bird that squawks
Hes got a funny laugh like a poodle barking
Since he lost his job at the restaurant
He's been at home nearly all the time

Each morning when I see him
I smile and wave like all is well
I wouldnt want to be him
But he could never tell

The guy downstairs smokes clove cigarettes
The smoke comes up here through the heating vents
The guy downstairs rises early each day
Blasts Abba on his stereo while he cleans his apartment
So I call him when I know he's asleep
And I speak in german, I just talk and talk
And I had a hundred bibles sent to him cod
And I left a dead rodent in his mailbox

Each morning when I see him
I smile and wave like all is fine
I wouldn't want to be him
Since he crossed that line

Sometimes I wake up at 4 am
I can hear him snoring in the bed below mine
Sometimes I think I can hear his thoughts
And I wonder what does he knows about me?
