One Man's Ceiling Is Another Man's Floor

One Man's Ceiling Is Another Man's Floor - Paul Simon (保羅·西蒙)

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 1 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
