One Man's Ceiling Is Another Man's Floor

There's been some hard feelings here

About some words that were said

There's 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

Remember: one man's ceiling

is another man's floor



There's been some strange goin's on

And some folks have come and gone

And the elevator man don't work no more

I heard a racket in the hall

And I thought I heard a fall

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

Remember: one man's ceiling

is another man's floor



And 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
