I know somebody in jail
For growin' somethin' in his windowsil
He was tryin' to make a livin' now he's tryin' to be forgivin oh well
I got neighbors that I just don't know
Mom and daddy ain't ever home
The son's at war and the girl next door she's startin to show
And it's all la-de-da
We all just sing along
While the world goes to hell in a feel good song, yea
La-de-da
Can't say I didn't see
This ship about to sink
'cause I got front row seats
Brother drinks a little to much
'cause his wife can't spend enough
She can't fill the hole in her empty soul with the way it was
And it's all la-de-da
We all just sing along
While the world goes to hell in a feel good song, yea
La-de-da
Can't say I didn't see
This ship about to sink
'cause I got front row seats
So I do what we gotta do
So our dreams come true
But when they don't
It's all la-de-da
We all just sing along
While the world goes to hell in a feel good song, yea
La-de-da
Can't say I didn't see
This ship about to sink
'cause I got front row seats
Yea I got front row seats
We all got front row seats
For growin' somethin' in his windowsil
He was tryin' to make a livin' now he's tryin' to be forgivin oh well
I got neighbors that I just don't know
Mom and daddy ain't ever home
The son's at war and the girl next door she's startin to show
And it's all la-de-da
We all just sing along
While the world goes to hell in a feel good song, yea
La-de-da
Can't say I didn't see
This ship about to sink
'cause I got front row seats
Brother drinks a little to much
