One Man`s Ceiling Is Another Man`s Floor — текст песни (Paul Simon)

Words & music by Paul Simon

There`s been some hard feelings here
About some words that were said
Been some hard feelings here
And what is more
There`s been a bloody purple nose
And some bloody purple clothes
That were messing up the lobby floor
It`s just apartment house rules
So all you `partment fools
Remember: one man`s ceiling is another man`s floor!
One man`s ceiling is another man`s floor


There`s been some strange goin`s on
And some folks have come and gone
Like the elevator man don`t work no more
I heard a racket in the hall
And I thought I heard a call
But I never opened up my door
It`s just apartment house sense
It`s like apartment rents
Remember: one man`s ceiling is another man`s floor!
one man`s ceiling is another man`s floor!


There`s an alley
in the back of my building
Where some people congregate in shame
I was walking with my dog
And the night was black with smog
When I thought I heard somebody
Call my name

Ah-- Remember: one man`s ceiling is another man`s floor!
one man`s ceiling is another man`s floor!
