The Lawrence Arms - Here Comes the Neighborhood lyrics

I work on Belmont, but I live in Wicker Park All my friends are bartenders in all the coolest bars My girlfriend's in the coolest band that you've ever seen They play the Empty Bottle every week I've got everything I need My loft, my motorcycle, my hip restaurant down the street And my neighbors are all artists or hot girls over 18 Who needs community when you live right in your scene? From Jinx to Betty's Blue Star, everybody knows my name From North Ave down to Augusta, everybody's all the same It's a playground fueled by beer, no Chicagoans live here It's a playground fueled by beer, no Chicagoans live here It's geography bound tightly by big city dreams It's geography bound tightly by big city dreams And when the property value's raised You'll be on your merry ways Like the poor outcla**ed families before you You've already paved Ashland to Western, Chicago to North Ave Congratulations kids, your shallow model city Is sinking, sinking down Congratulations kids, your shallow model city Is sinking, sinking down You've become what you swore that you'd never be
