chuck brodsky – forest hills sub كلمات اغاني

the sign says forest hills – it was recently defaced
i guess there was a forest here - before they built this place
with these cookie-cutter homes - with the lawns all manicured
all the cars are waxed and polished – as are all the kitchen floors

it’s a wholesome kind of place – that’s what they’d have you believe
there’s a flag at every house – and a few overachieve
we have a child prodigy – and a couple of folks do art
and a little neighborhood baseball team that plays with lots of heart

the letter to the editor – i read in last week’s paper
was written by that knucklehead – who used to be my neighbor
talk about intolerance – those people he calls heathens
‘cause they don’t believe the same things – that this knucklehead believes in

now i know for a fact – a certain so & so reads p-rn
a package sent to him once – was delivered to my door
i didn’t hand it over – no, i kept it to myself
if we should ever have a problem – well, it’s up there on the shelf

there was a pakistani family – that lived just down the block
as soon as they’d replace the gl-ss someone would throw a rock
i don’t think it was children – though children can be cruel
whoever it was that did it – they broke the golden rule

people read the times – and they watch the tv news
they receive it like the gospel – they’ve all fallen for the ruse
they all have their opinions – but none of them have clues
there’s a patriotic silence – there are no dissenting views

the school we have here couldn’t teach a monkey how to climb
and evie’s neighbor maintains – that to homeschool is a crime
i think she’s a moron – i told evie on the phone
tell her it’s none of her godd-mned business – in the gentlest of tones

they know him as the garbage man – but i know him as anthony
their trash he turns to beauty – some could profit from it handsomely
these little works of art – that he would sprinkle on their lawns
would end up in the trash again – as soon as people saw ‘em

katy burned some leaves – and that’s against the law
the cop who showed up first said they had gotten 20 calls
they wrote her a citation – but it just went up in smoke
they put her in a squad car – it made for 20 happy folks

and each 4th of july – it’s the same tin foil parade
waving from a flatbed – while a band behind them plays
all of our local sponsors – and all the block captains too
party hats & streamers – all red, white, & blue

but just below the varnish – and under the veneer
behind the smiling faces – and all of the good cheer
you’ve got your petty jealousies – and all your different feuds
gossip and suspicions and people who are rude

the sign says “forest hills – a wholesome kind of place”
now i’m not saying by whom – but it was recently defaced
so let the credits roll – and you can use my song
my guess is that for hollywood – it’s a few seconds too long
