Sleater-Kinney - Favorite Neighbor Lyrics
Official




Well, alright, your presence is a favor
Loaning out your virtue
Like you're our favorite neighbor
And come on, try a little harder
Love to keep us guessing
Are you saint or are you martyr?

My my, you shoulda seen it coming
Drownin' in the gold
And soakin' in the honey
And oh my, we didn't see it coming
Built ourselves a fortress
And now the walls are tumblin'

Now hold on, you're an overreacher
Doling out those lessons
Like you're our favorite teacher
And oh boy, keeping us from learning
Puttin' out our fires
While your own house is burning

My my, we shoulda seen it coming
Drownin' in the gold
And soakin' in the honey
And oh my, we didn't see it coming
Built ourselves a fortress
And now the walls are tumblin'

Were we hoping to find it in a song?
Were we hoping to find it in a song?
Were we hoping to find it in a song?
Were we hoping to find it in a song?
Were we hoping to find it in a song?
Were we hoping to find it in a song?

Well, alright your presence is a favor
Loaning out your virtue
Like you're our favorite neighbor
And come on what is it you're screamin'?
Both of us are are lyin'
And both of us are dreamin'

Oh my, you shoulda seen it comin'
Drownin' in the gold
And soakin' in the honey
And oh my, we didn't see it comin'
Built ourselves a fortress
And now our hands are bloody

And my my, you shoulda seen it coming
Drownin' in the gold
And soakin' in the honey
And oh my, we didn't see it coming
Built ourselves a fortress
And now the walls are tumblin'
