October
Mysterious Neighbor: Unveiling October Secrets
Lyrics
I swear there’s something going on across the street
Observation of suspicious activity occurring across the street.
My neighbor’s acting just a little too discrete, yeah
The neighbor is behaving cautiously or secretly.
He’s taking trash out in the middle of the night
Notable behavior of taking out trash during odd hours.
But when I see him in the day he’s so polite
Contrasting polite behavior during the day.
Every morning he waves as I leave the door
Neighbor's daily gesture of waving goodbye.
But I see him buying bleach at the grocery store, yeah
Witnessing the neighbor purchasing bleach, an unusual item, at the store.
He’s the founder of the whole neighborhood watch
He is the initiator of the neighborhood watch.
And every week they meet up for a glass of scotch
Regular meetings with neighbors for a drink.
Who’d suspect a guy who
Questioning who would suspect a person displaying friendliness.
Always wears a smile with his tie
Associating a constant smile and formal attire.
They all believe a guy who
Community's trust in the neighbor's pleasant personality.
Is truly a delight, Mr. Right
The perception that he's a perfect gentleman.
Close the windows, lock the door
Securing the premises due to potential danger.
It’s late at night and hear footsteps on the floor
Sensing approaching footsteps at a late hour.
Blood is freezing in my limbs
Feeling an intense fear or apprehension.
Well, is it real or is it just October things?
Questioning the authenticity of the fear, linking it to October and its mysteries.
He never talks about his past, they say he’s coy
Neighbor's avoidance of discussing personal history, seen as secretive.
I could just shrug it off, I’m being paranoid, yeah
Personal doubts about paranoia despite suspicious behavior.
Women come over cuz he doesn’t have a spouse
Visiting women, but no one sees them leave his home.
But oddly no one ever sees them leave his house
N/A
Who’d suspect a guy who
Repeatedly questioning suspicions regarding a friendly person.
Always wears a smile with his tie
Linking friendliness with appearance (smile and tie).
They all believe a guy who
Community's trust in the neighbor's pleasant personality.
Is truly a delight, Mr. Right
The perception that he's a perfect gentleman.
Close the windows, lock the door
Reacting defensively by securing the premises.
It’s late at night and hear footsteps on the floor
Sensing approaching footsteps at a late hour.
Blood is freezing in my limbs
Experiencing intense fear or apprehension.
Well, is it real or is it just October things?
Questioning the authenticity of the fear, linking it to October and its mysteries.
Maybe I’ve been watching too much TV
Doubting one's own judgment due to potential influence from media.
Maybe I should let him have privacy
Considering giving the neighbor privacy instead of suspicion.
Or maybe I’m the only one who can see
Questioning whether personal perception is unique in observing suspicious activities.
Our street’s the scene of a thriller mystery
Perceiving the neighborhood as the setting for a mystery or thriller.
Close the windows, lock the door
Reacting defensively by securing the premises.
It’s late at night and hear footsteps on the floor
Sensing approaching footsteps at a late hour.
Blood is freezing in my limbs
Experiencing intense fear or apprehension.
Well, is it real or is it just October things?
Questioning the authenticity of the fear, linking it to October and its mysteries.</
