Verse 1
   Sittin' in your front yard, drinkin' lemonade
   Suburban life, a pretty wife, you think you've got it made
   But you don't know, what's in store, for you and your family
   I'm movin' in, right next door, won't you welcome me?
   It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood
   And I hope I didn't ruin your day
   Won't you be my neighbor?
  
   Verse 2
   I brought my life, my ugly wife, my dirty dog with fleas
   My kid's a punk, and I'm a drunk, this I'm sure you'll see
   Yeah you don't know, what it's like, to live in misery
   Welcome to, home sweet hell, dissatisfaction guaranteed
   It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood
   And if I could I surely would
   Invite you in and say
   Won't you be my neighbor?
   Won't you be my neighbor?
   Won't you be my neighbor?
   Won't you be my neighbor?
  
  
   Verse 3
   C'mon I don't think you'll find
   A place to live in peace of mind

   Won't you be my, won't you be my funky(fuckin') neighbor?

   Well I drink, and I stink, I smoke, yeah I'm a joke
   I try all night and day to get a piece of the action, a-haa
   And you should know by now you're never gonna forget, a-aaa
   Now I know just what you're thinkin'
   It could be out 'n' you're drinkin'
   So don't you knock it until you try it
   It could be you in a little while
   I hope I didn't ruin your day
