Living In The Neighbourhood
Harmony in Diversity: Living Life in the Neighbourhood
Lyrics
We got all types round hear
Various kinds of individuals reside in this area.
We got pillars & freaks, we got
There are respectable members of society and unconventional or eccentric people here.
Movers & shakers & kids in the streets
Active, influential people and children roam the streets.
We got every kind of colour, tongues I don't speak but we
People of diverse ethnicities and languages exist, although I don't understand some languages spoken.
Manage the matter whenever me meet
We handle our interactions peacefully whenever we meet despite our differences.
And it don't bother me and I don't think it should
The diversity doesn't trouble me, and I don't believe it should trouble anyone else.
Cause We're all just living in the neighbourhood
We're all simply inhabitants of this community.
She's got bright orange hair
A person with distinct, vibrant hair color.
Think's she's some kind of beacon
Thinks highly of herself, like a guiding light for others.
I'd like to get familiar but she changes with the seasons
I wish to get to know her better, but she's constantly changing.
Fascinating neighbours, hungry for views
The neighbors are intriguing and eager for attention.
Straining for a glimpse as she comes jingling through
Struggling to catch a glimpse of her as she moves around.
And it don't bother me and I don't think it should
The differences in people don't trouble me, and I think others shouldn't be troubled by them either.
Cause we're all just living in the neighbourhood
We're all part of this community and should accept one another.
And it don't bother me and I don't think it should
-Cause we're all just living in the neighbourhood
-Everybody's just like me
Everyone is similar in their pursuit of enjoyment and stress relief.
Playing real hard, letting off steam
We're all engaged in activities to unwind.
We got high level needs, he's a creature of habit
Someone with specific and consistent needs, surrounded by a messy garden due to their compulsive collecting.
Garden's like a junkyard cause he's just has to have it
The garden resembles a cluttered space due to their constant acquisitions.
Always complaining papers didn't come
Consistently complains about the non-arrival of newspapers.
Truly believes we're trying to bring him undone
Believes others are intentionally trying to cause trouble for him.
And it don't bother me and I don't think it should
The diverse behaviors of neighbors don't bother me, and I don't think they should bother others either.
Cause We're all just living in the neighbourhood
Reiteration of the idea that we all coexist in this neighborhood, and differences should not create issues.
And it don't bother me and I don't think it should
-Cause We're all just living in the neighbourhood
