Well, there's a man who lives in Apartment 105
And he swears he used to work with Andy Warhol
And he came after me with gardening shears one day
And now I'm fearing for my life
Please, Mr. Waldon, give me an answer
Please, Mr. Waldon, give me an answer
We thought his ??? ain't nothing but a joke
And he screams in my ears so loud I think I'm going deaf
I caught him putting nails in my back tires yesterday
And now I'm fearing for my life
Please, Mr. Waldon, give me an answer
Please, Mr. Waldon, give me an answer
And he's so angry he will explode
He's so lonely he will die alone
Will die alone
Please, Mr. Waldon, give me an answer
Please, Mr. Waldon, give me an answer
Please, Mr. Waldon, give me an answer (He's so angry, someday he will explode)
Please, Mr. Waldon, give me an answer (He's so lonely, someday he will die alone)
