We never met face to face

But I feel like I know you well

You have the place next to my place

I could see you by ringing the bell

But I hear you through the wall



I hear you in the morning shower

How can you play that song at that hour

Press my ear to the wall to hear coffee perk

And watch from the window when you leave for work

And I hide behind the wall



Your boyfriend is really a jerk (jerk,jerk,jerk,jerk,jerk)

Will he ever learn to play the saxophone

He plays that same song over and over

Your boyfriend is really a jerk (jerk,jerk,jerk,jerk,jerk)

Watches daytime shows the sound is loud

Watches daytime shows watches daytime shows

I can't wait till you're home from work



I like Saturdays best of all

When your exercise records play

The pictures shake on my wall

Send a dozen leg lifts my way

Cause I feel you through the wall



I heard how you balked when they raised the rent

It was the closest I've come to losing you

Just fifty a month and it's money well spent

To keep you beside me it's the least I can do

Cause I need you through the wall



Your boyfriend is really a jerk (jerk,jerk,jerk,jerk,jerk)

Will he ever learn to play the saxophone

He plays that same song over and over

Your boyfriend is really a jerk (jerk,jerk,jerk,jerk,jerk)

Watches daytime shows the sound is loud

Watches daytime shows watches daytime shows

I can't wait till you're home from work



And I hear you through the wall

And I feel you through the wall

And I need you through the wall
