Love's Got a Ghetto

In some suburb of your heart
 Where lawns are manicured
 The safety of my memorys assured
 But theres an over crowded part
 Where old resentments are
 And multiplied by exponential love
 But Loves got a ghetto and it wouldnt be wise
 To walk all alone in the dark there
 Loves got a ghetto and I wouldnt advise
 You park there
 On some brilliant boulevard where all is gentrified
 You stroll with some young suitor by your side
 But how long can you disregard
 The shady side of town
 When all your oversights have fallen down?
 Why do you want to go there?
 Your jealous lover sighs
 Who could you possible know there?
 Your racist mother cries
 You say youll be fine alone
 But once, dear, you were mine alone
 And I know otherwise
 Loves got a ghetto and it wouldnt be wise
 To walk all alone in the dark there
 Loves got a ghetto and I strongly advise that you
 Clip on the glove when you park there
 Loves got a ghetto that the businesses shun
 The dealer replaces the grocer
 Loves got a ghetto and Im traveling one block closer
 One block closer
