Billy Idol – The Dead Next Door Lyrics 10 years ago
So this is a bit interesting and depressing. Maybe I should have been a songwriter. I've loved this song for so many years - one of my all time favs! - but TBH I never checked out the lyrics. Now I'm a bit mystified, because this is what I thought the lyrics were:

Watch the sky
No reason why
I would say sure
Sunday was hot
Monday was not
Monday was not
for the dead next door.

One error, silent terror,
and we're the dead next door.

The heat of the day
Aye it fades away
fades away
The heat of the day
Suffering away
Suffering away
For the dead next door.
You see.

One error, silent terror,
And we're the dead next door.

In animal love,
In dark as ink and blood
One thing you should know.

Don't hear their cries,
Don't eat out of their hands.

Ghosts don't die,
You see,
Ghosts don't cry,
It's easy.

You and me
You and me
With the dead next door
You and me
With the dead next door
You and me
With the dead next door

Maybe it's one of those "you see beauty where you want" sorta things, but I'm a bit disappointed in the real lyrics! :(
