Black Plastic Hat - Friendly Neighbour With a Knife

I am the nice guy next door
Who wouldn't hurt a bird
Help you bring your shopping in
Steal your key ring
Bide my time to enter in your life
Friendly neighbour with a knife

I know you hate to say no
And I'll play on that
Until I've caught you in my trap
A fresh specimen, captured within, this clear glass lid
Better to savour all your precious gifts

I am the nice guy next door
Who hangs around you like a fly
Little creepy maybe nothing more
Really nothing more
Until I choose my time to end your life
Friendly neighbour with a knife

I know you hate to say no
And I'll play on that
Until I've caught you in my trap
A fresh specimen, captured within, this clear glass lid
Better to savour all your precious gifts

I never was anything
But now I'm talk of the town
Nobody knows me
But I watch them read of me
Almost every day
Fretting just like fascinated ants around their dead
As I quietly extend my collection

I know you hate to say no
And I'll play on that
Until I've caught you in my trap
A fresh specimen, captured within, this clear glass lid
Better to savour all your precious gifts
