Crazy Neighbor Lady

                                                London...Catering To The Tourists

Stood in her underwear
              Screaming at the top of her lungs
              At the neighborhood kids 
              Playing in the streets
She had three children
              That she pushed away
              After she pulled the plug 
              On their father

Accused her cats
              Of speaking in tongues
              Covered all her windows 
              With old discolored bed sheets
Complained to the Mayor
              She was being harassed by the KKK
              Spent most of her day 
              Wallowing in anger

We all knew they'd be coming for you Mrs Delfino
Coming for you before too long
What happened to you Mrs Delfino
Where the hell did it all go wrong

Most mornings she sat in the kitchen
             Cleaning her guns
             Ready to defend herself 
             From the secret police
Swore when they came for her
             There would be hell to pay
             Had her finger on the trigger
             Bullet in the chamber

When she needed anything
             She called up one of her sons
             Not the one who had her arrested 
             For breach of the peace
A few years ago
             On Mother's Day
             The one who now 
             Regards her as a stranger

We all knew they'd be coming for you Mrs Delfino
Coming for you before too long
What happened to you Mrs Delfino
Where the hell did it all go wrong
