lyrics

There's a dancing bear in my neighborhood
I don't know how he got here but he's pretty good
I like the way he's so light on his feet
I like the way he keeps his yard so neat
He's my neighbor and I like him
But he better stay out of my trash, or we're gonna fight

There's an elephant living down the hall
He makes a lot of noise but he's no trouble at all
I like the way it looks like he's smiling when he talks
I like his big ol' floppy ears and his lumbering walk
He's my neighbor and I like him
But he better quit eating my peanuts, or we're gonna fight

And the neighbors say
There goes the neighborhood
There goes the neighborhood
There goes the neighborhood
When we fight

The guys upstairs are dinosaurs
I thought they were extinct or something but there they are
They helped me out when I had to fix my clutch
I like their stoicism and how they're scaly to the touch
They're my neighbors and I like them
But they better quit staring at the sky
