Sally called, when she got the word She said, "I suppose you've heard about Alice" So I rushed to the window and I looked outside And I could hardly believe my eyes A big limousine pulled slowly into Alice's drive
Refrain: I don't know why she's leaving or where she's gonna go I guess she's got her reasons but I just don't wanna know 'Cause for twenty four years I've been living next door to Alice (Alice, who the fuck is Alice?) Twenty four years just waiting for a chance To tell her how I'm feeling maybe get a second glance Now I've gotta get used to not living next door to Alice (Alice, who the fuck is Alice?)
We grew up together, two kids in the park Carved our initials deep in the bark Me and Alice Now she walks to the door with her head held high And just for a moment I caught her eye As the big limousine pulled slowly out of Alice's drive
Refrain
Sally called back and asked how I felt She said, "I know how to help get over Alice" She said, "Now Alice is gone but I'm still here And you know I've been waiting twenty four years" And the big limousine disappeared
I don't why, why she's leaving, or where she's gonna go I guess she's got her reasons but I just don't wanna know 'Cause for twenty four years I've been living next door to Alice (Alice, who the fuck is Alice?) Twenty four years, just waiting for a chance To tell her how I feel and maybe get a second glance But I'll never get used to not living next door to Alice (Alice, who the fuck is Alice?)
No, I'll never get used to not living next door to Alice
